YEATS domain (YD) containing proteins are an emerging class of epigenetic targets in drug discovery. Dysregulation of these modified lysine-binding proteins has been linked to the onset and progression of cancers. We herein report the discovery and characterisation of the first small-molecule chemical probe, SGC-iMLLT, for the YD of MLLT1 (ENL/YEATS1) and MLLT3 (AF9/YEATS3). SGC-iMLLT is a potent and
包含YEATS域(YD)的蛋白质是药物发现中新兴的表观遗传学目标。这些修饰的赖氨酸结合蛋白的失调与癌症的发生和发展有关。我们在此报告了针对MLLT1(ENL / YEATS1)和MLLT3(AF9 / YEATS3)的YD的第一个小分子化学探针SGC-iMLLT的发现和表征。SGC-iMLLT是一种有效且选择性的MLLT1 / 3-组蛋白相互作用抑制剂。观察到对其他人类YD蛋白(YEATS2 / 4)和溴结构域具有出色的选择性。此外,我们的探针显示了MLLT1和MLLT3的细胞靶标接合。还报道了具有MLLT1 YD的第一个小分子X射线共晶体结构。
