Structural investigation of a pyrano-1,3-oxazine derivative and the phenanthridinone core moiety against BRD2 bromodomains.

ABSTRACT: The BET (bromodomain and extra-terminal) family of proteins recognize the acetylated histone code on chromatin and play important roles in transcriptional co-regulation. BRD2 and BRD4, which belong to the BET family, are promising drug targets for the management of chronic diseases. The discovery of new scaffold molecules, a pyrano-1,3-oxazine derivative (NSC 328111; NS5) and phenanthridinone-based derivatives (L10 and its core moiety L10a), as inhibitors of BRD2 bromodomains BD1 and BD2, respectively, has recently been reported. The compound NS5 has a significant inhibitory effect on BRD2 in glioblastoma. Here, the crystal structure of BRD2 BD2 in complex with NS5, refined to 2.0 Å resolution, is reported. Moreover, as the previously reported crystal structures of the BD1-NS5 complex and
