    Abstract: Verticillin A is found to be a potent inhibitor of histone methyltransferases, selective for G9a, GLP, SUV39H1, SUV39H2, MLL1, and NSD2. Methods of using Verticillin A are provided. The Verticillin A can be synthetically produced or it can be isolated from natural sources. Methods if inhibiting one or more histone methyltransferases are provided. In addition, methods are provided for treating diseases or disorders related to overexpression of one or more histone methyltransferases. Exemplary diseases and disorders to be treated include cancer, asthma, HIV, and progeria.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to the roles played by the SUV420H1 and SUV420H2 genes in carcinogenesis and features a method for treating or preventing cancer by administering a double-stranded molecule against the SUV420H1 or SUV420H2 gene or a composition or vector containing such a double-stranded molecule. The present invention also features methods and kits for detecting or diagnosing cancer in a subject, including detecting an expression level of the SUV420H1 or SUV420H2 gene. The present invention further features methods and kits for assessing or determining the prognosis of a subject with cancer, including detecting the expression level of an SUV420H2 gene. Also, disclosed are methods of screening for candidate substances for treating or preventing cancer or inhibiting cancer cell growth, using as an index their effect on the expression or activity of SUV420H1 or SUV420H2.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a reconstituted complex including EED, EZH2 and SUZ12 wherein the reconstituted complex has histone methyltransferase (HMTase) activity for lysine 27 of histone H3 (H3-K27). The reconstituted complex may further include RbAp48, AEBP2 or both. Also disclosed are methods of producing the reconstituted complex, methods of identifying compounds that inhibit the HTMase activity of the reconstituted complex and methods of identifying candidate compounds for treating cancer. Reagents and kits including the reconstituted complex are further provided.
