Structural highlights
DiseaseBRD4_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] FunctionBRD4_HUMAN Plays a role in a process governing chromosomal dynamics during mitosis (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMedBromodomains are acetyllysine epigenetic mark reader proteins. Small molecules inhibiting them have potential as anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and anticancer agents. A 4-acyl pyrrole derivative (see yellow structure in recognition pocket) has been identified that potently inhibits specific bromodomains and exhibits antiproliferative activity against leukemia cell lines. 4-acyl pyrroles: mimicking acetylated lysines in histone code reading.,Lucas X, Wohlwend D, Hugle M, Schmidtkunz K, Gerhardt S, Schule R, Jung M, Einsle O, Gunther S Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2013 Dec 23;52(52):14055-9. doi: 10.1002/anie.201307652. , Epub 2013 Nov 24.
