Product Description: Tazemetostat (Standard) is the analytical standard of Tazemetostat. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Tazemetostat (EPZ-6438) is a potent, selective and orally available EZH2 inhibitor. Tazemetostat inhibits the activity of human polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2)-containing wild-type EZH2 with a Ki value of 2.5 nM. Tazemetostat inhibits EZH2 with IC50s of 11 and 16 nM in peptide assay and nucleosome assay, respectively. Tazemetostat inhibits rat EZH2 with an IC50 of 4 nM. Tazemetostat also inhibits EZH1 with an IC50 of 392 nM. Tazemetostat induces apoptosis and differentiation specifically in SMARCB1-deleted MRT cells[1].
