We thus performed a drug screening approach using a library consisting of epigenetic compounds and ‘Donated Chemical Probes’ collated by the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) and identified the p300/CBP HAT inhibitor A-485, in addition to the well-known BET inhibitor JQ1, to be the most active candidate for NMC treatment. The gene discussed is DNER; the disease is nut midline carcinoma.
