Controlled inhibition of methyltransferases using photoswitchable peptidomimetics: towards an epigenetic regulation of leukemia

We describe a cell-permeable photoswitchable probe capable of modulating epigenetic cellular states by disruption of an essential protein–protein interaction within the MLL1 methyltransferase core complex. Our azobenzene-containing peptides selectively block the WDR5-MLL1 interaction by binding to W...
