EpiTherapeutics ApS is a holding company that develops cancer drugs based on research in the field of epigenetics. Its development programs are focused on enzymes involved in the regulation of transcription in cancer - current programs target histone demethylases and methyltransferases. The firm's regulation is commonly used for post-translational covalent modifications of histones and other chromatin-remodeling complexes, which determines whether a gene is accessible and hence, expressed or repressed. Its covalent modifications involved in epigenetic regulation include deoxyribonucleic acid methylation, histone acetylation, and histone methylation.
