Crystal Structure of BRD4 with QC4956
Structural highlights
Disease[BRD4_HUMAN] Note=A chromosomal aberration involving BRD4 is found in a rare, aggressive, and lethal carcinoma arising in midline organs of young people. Translocation t(15;19)(q14;p13) with NUT which produces a BRD4-NUT fusion protein.[1] [2] Function[BRD4_HUMAN] Plays a role in a process governing chromosomal dynamics during mitosis (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMedThe bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) family of epigenetic proteins has attracted considerable attention in drug discovery given its involvement in regulating gene transcription. Screening a focused small molecule library based on the bromodomain pharmacophore resulted in the identification of 2-methylisoquinoline-1-one as a novel BET bromodomain-binding motif. Structure guided SAR exploration resulted in >10,000-fold potency improvement for the BRD4-BD1 bromodomain. Lead compounds exhibited excellent potencies in both biochemical and cellular assays in MYC-dependent cell lines. Compound 36 demonstrated good physicochemical properties and promising exposure levels in exploratory PK studies.
