Comment: C21 is a synthetic analogue of a histone H4 tail peptide sequence bearing a chloroacetamidine side group. This compound was developed as a protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) inhibitor. Full information describing the design and synthesis of C21 is available in Obianyo et al (2011) [1].

Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
PRMTs catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) to the guanidinium nitrogens of arginine residues in proteins. C21 irreversibly inactivates PRMT1 [1].
