Structural Basis for BD1-Preferring 2,4-Disubstituted Pyrimidine BRDT Inhibitors. J.Med.Chem., 69:11088-11108, 2026 Cited by PubMed Abstract: The first bromodomain of the BET protein BRDT (BRDT-BD1) possesses a unique Arg54 residue at the terminus of the ZA channel, absent in other BET family members. We explored this structural uniqueness with 23 analogs of the BET/kinase inhibitor , each bearing an amino acid side chain to enable potential interactions between the positively charged arginine group and the negatively charged carboxylate groups. In an AlphaScreen assay, serine analog showed 35-fold selectivity for BRDT-T over BRD4-T. The BRDT-BD1 cocrystal structure with glutamic acid analog showed no interaction with Arg54, suggesting that the observed preference may be related to differences in the structured water molecules. Compound displayed exceptional in vitro metabolic stability but had limited cellular permeability in MDCK-MDR1 cells. Compounds and are among the best BRDT-BD1-preferring inhibitors reported to date and demonstrate a significant step toward identifying highly selective BRDT inhibitors for male contraception.
