Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
(-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate competitive, the inhibitor can form hydrogen bonds with Pro1223, Glu1265, Cys1225, Ser1229 and Arg1309. Hypermethylation of CpG islands in the promoter regions is an important mechanism to silence the expression of many important genes in cancer. (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate can inhibit DNMT activity and reactivate methylation-silenced genes in cancer cells Homo sapiens
