Application

GSK-LSD1 has been used as a lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) inhibitor in mice to study sepsis-induced mortality. It has also been used as an inhibitor to study if the effect of phenelzine activation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) latency is caused due to LSD1.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GSK-LSD1 is a potent and selective inhibitor of lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1). GSK-LSD1 potently inhibits proliferation of varies cancer cell lines by changing gene expression patterns. For full characterization details, please visit the GSK-LSD1 probe summary on the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) website.

Lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a histone modifying enzyme that suppresses gene expression through demethylation of lysine 4 on histone H3. The anti-tumor activity of GSK2879552 and GSK-LSD1, potent, selective irreversible inactivators of LSD1, has previously been described. Inhibition

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a chromatin-remodeling enzyme that plays an important role in cancer. Over-expression of LSD1 decreases methylation at histone 3 lysine 4, and aberrantly silences tumor suppressor genes. Inhibitors of LSD1 have been designed as chemical probes
