Description

3-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)propanoic acid is a potent inhibitor of the lysine methyltransferase enzyme. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of methyl groups from S-adenosylmethionine to lysine residues in proteins, and it is involved in cancer cell proliferation. 3-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)propanoic acid inhibits the activity of this enzyme by covalently binding to lysine residues on the protein and preventing their methylation. Research has shown that 3-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)propanoic acid can block tumor growth by inhibiting the activity of this enzyme.
