Quinoline derivative SGI-1027 (N-(4-(2-amino-6-methylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)-4-(quinolin -4-ylamino)benzamide) was first described in 2009 as a potent inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) 1, 3A and 3B. Based on molecular modeling studies, performed using the crystal structure of Haemophilus haemolyticus cytosine-5 DNA methyltransferase (MHhaI C5 DNMT), which suggested that the quinoline and the aminopyridimine moieties of SGI-1027 are important for ...
