Crystal structure of human BRD4(1) in complex with 4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-phenylprop-2-enoyl]-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-one (compound 19a)
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 PubMedBromodomains are key transcriptional regulators that are thought to be druggable epigenetic targets for cancer, inflammation, diabetes and cardiovascular therapeutics. Of particular importance is the first of two bromodomains in bromodomain containing 4 protein (BRD4(1)). Protein-ligand docking in BRD4(1) was used to purchase a small, focused screening set of compounds possessing a large variety of core structures. Within this set, a small number of weak hits each contained a dihydroquinoxalinone ring system. We purchased other analogs with this ring system and further validated the new hit series and obtained improvement in binding inhibition. Limited exploration by new analog synthesis showed that the binding inhibition in a FRET assay could be improved to the low muM level making this new core a potential hit-to-lead series. Additionally, the predicted geometries of the initial hit and an improved analog were confirmed by X-ray co-crystallography with BRD4(1).
