UNC1079 is the piperidine analog of UNC1021, as a structurally similar but significantly less potent inhibitor for use as a negative control in cellular studies. Target: L3MBTL3The low anticipated affinity of UNC1079 was confirmed, as it demonstrated an activity versus L3MBTL3 of > 10 uM by AlphaScreen, which is >1000-fold weaker than UNC1215. UNC1079 also displays weak binding by ITC.
