Esa1, being a part of the MYST family of histone acetyltransferases, plays a pivotal role in the modulation of gene transcription through its acetylation activity in yeast. Esa1 inhibitors primarily focus on curtailing this acetylating ability. Among the notable inhibitors, Garcinol and Anacardic acid are directly involved in inhibiting Esa1's function by binding to its acetyl-CoA site or directly reducing its acetylation activity. Furthermore, the compound Curcumin can disrupt Esa1's interaction with acetyl-CoA, thereby reducing its catalytic efficiency.
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and synthetic compounds such as MB-3, PU139, and PU141 have shown to have a direct interaction with MYST family proteins, including Esa1, resulting in their inhibited enzymatic activity. Salermide, though known to primarily target sirtuins, might indirectly affect HATs like Esa1. On the broader spectrum, general HAT inhibitors such as CPTH2 and CPTH6 can interfere with the acetylation activity of Esa1. Lastly, compounds like NU9056 and TH1834, known to target mammalian counterparts or closely related MYST proteins, can also be expected to exhibit inhibitory effects on Esa1.
