Sinefungin (58944-73-3) is a nucleoside S-adenosyl-1-methionine analog. Potent, competitive methyltransferase (protein, DNA, and RNA methyltransferases) inhibitor.1,2 IC50 < 1.0 and 2.5 μM for PRMT1 and SET7/9, respectively.3 Sinefungin binds with greater affinity to the adenine-specific DNA methyltransferase M.TaqI than S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine.4 Inhibits biofilm formation by Streptococcus pneumoniae.5
