Identification of a BAZ2A-Bromodomain Hit Compound by Fragment Growing [PDF]
BAZ2A is an epigenetic regulator affecting transcription of ribosomal RNA. It is overexpressed in aggressive and recurrent prostate cancer, promoting cellular migration. Its bromodomain is characterized by a shallow and difficult-to-drug pocket. Here, we

Bromodomain-containing proteins are readers of acetylated lysine and play important roles in cancer. Bromo-domain-containing protein 7 (BRD7) has been implicated in multiple malignancies; however, there are no selective chemical probes to study its ...

Bromodomain dimers: A case study of BRD4 and family-wide AlphaFold predictions [PDF]
Bromodomains are conserved acetyl-lysine reader domains that play a central role in the assembly of transcriptional regulatory complexes. While generally presumed to function as monomers, bromodomain homo-dimers have been identified, and several ...

Genome-wide analysis of bromodomain gene family in Arabidopsis and rice
The bromodomain-containing proteins (BRD-proteins) belongs to family of ‘epigenetic mark readers’, integral to epigenetic regulation. The BRD-members contain a conserved ‘bromodomain’ (BRD/BRD-fold: interacts with acetylated-lysine in histones), and ...

Discovery and characterization of bromodomain 2–specific inhibitors of BRDT
Significance There is no nonhormonal contraceptive pill for men, although hundreds of genes have been identified to play roles during spermatogenesis and fertilization in the male reproductive tract. To address the absence of contraceptive drugs for men,

A Chemical Probe for the ATAD2 Bromodomain [PDF]
AbstractATAD2 is a cancer‐associated protein whose bromodomain has been described as among the least druggable of that target class. Starting from a potent lead, permeability and selectivity were improved through a dual approach: 1) using CF2 as a sulfone bio‐isostere to exploit the unique properties of fluorine, and 2) using 1,3‐interactions to ...

Reading More than Histones: The Prevalence of Nucleic Acid Binding among Reader Domains
The eukaryotic genome is packaged into the cell nucleus in the form of chromatin, a complex of genomic DNA and histone proteins. Chromatin structure regulation is critical for all DNA templated processes and involves, among many things, extensive post ...

Design of Class I/IV Bromodomain-Targeting Degraders for Chromatin Remodeling Complexes
Targeted protein degradation is an emerging technology that can be used for modulating the activity of epigenetic protein targets. Among bromodomain-containing proteins, a number of degraders for the BET family have been developed while non-BET ...

Chemical synthesis of the ATAD2 bromodomain [PDF]
Significance The bromodomain–histone binding motif has been shown to read epigenetic marks on chromatin, and proteins with a bromodomain can have powerful effects on gene expression and transcriptional regulation. ATAD2 is one such protein and has been linked to a wide variety of cancers with expression of ATAD2 correlating strongly with a ...
