BIX-01294 is a selective inhibitor of G9a and G9a-like protein histone lysine methyltransferases, with IC50 values of 0.7 and 1.7 µM, respectively. It modulates H3K9me2 levels in mammalian cells and has been instrumental in studies of epigenetic regulation and cellular reprogramming. In neuroscience, BIX-01294’s ability to alter chromatin states and gene expression profiles makes it a valuable tool for investigating neurodevelopmental processes and neuroplasticity. Its role in facilitating the induction of pluripotent stem cells also opens avenues for regenerative medicine and modeling of neurological diseases. Although primarily used in stem cell and cancer research, its epigenetic effects are increasingly relevant to understanding and potentially treating neurodegenerative disorders.

Need this compound in a format that drops straight into your assay? We can tailor formulation, chemistry, and documentation so your results stay consistent across runs and re-orders.
- Format options: solid or pre-dissolved solution (choose solvent), target concentration, aliquots, light/moisture-protected packaging
- Chemistry options: free base/acid vs salt forms, hydrate/solvate preference, stereoisomer control (single enantiomer or racemate), close analogs
- Add-on labels & handles: D/¹³C/¹⁵N isotopes (LC-MS/internal standards), azide/alkyne or other functional handles for conjugation
- QC & documentation: standard COA or enhanced analytical pack (HPLC/LC-MS/NMR), chiral purity, residual solvents, water content (KF), method-specific specs
- Scale & continuity: mg to gram scale, bulk pricing, lot reservation, repeat-order continuity
To quote quickly, tell us: compound name + CAS/structure (SMILES or mol file), intended assay context, solvent preference, salt/stereochemistry requirements, purity/QC level, and the amount (mg–g).
