Histone H3K4 demethylase inhibitor KDM5-C49 ethyl ester prodrug that selectively upregulates H3K4me3 and inhibits KDM5-dependent cancer growth.
KDM5-C70 (KDOAM-21) corresponds to the ethyl ester precursor of a selective αKG-competitive KDM5 histone demethylase inhibitor KDM5-C49 (KDOAM-21; KDM5A/B/C/D Ki = 2/1/6.1/3.4 nM vs. KDM4C/6B/3A/2A Ki = 0.51/4.55/2.59/4.4 μM; KDM5A/B/C/D IC50 = 1.1/0.8/3.2/2.7 μM by FDH assay with [αKG] = 1 mM & [E]/[S] = 0.5/15 μM; KDM5A/B/C IC50 = 25/30/59 nM by alphaLISA with [αKG] = 25 μM & [E]/[S] = 10/100 nM). KDM5-C70 treatment selectively upregulates cellular histone H3 trimethylation on Lys4 (H3K4me3), but not on Lys9/7/36 (5 μM, 3d), and inhibits KDM5-dependent cancer growth (by 85%/MCF7/11d, 97%/BT474/24d, and 70%/ZR-75-1/24d; 5 μM).
The complexity by which cells regulate gene and protein expression is multifaceted and intricate. Regulation of 3' untranslated region (UTR) processing of mRNA has been shown to play a critical role in development and disease. However, the process by which

Members of the KDM5 (also known as JARID1) family are 2-oxoglutarate- and Fe(2+)-dependent oxygenases that act as histone H3K4 demethylases, thereby regulating cell proliferation and stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. Here we report crystal structures of the catalytic core of

Isomers of chiral drugs can exhibit marked differences in biological activities. We studied the binding and inhibitory activities of 12 compounds against KDM5A. Among them are two pairs of enantiomers representing two distinct inhibitor chemotypes, namely, ( R)- and (
Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) are of interest as drug targets due to their regulatory roles in chromatin organization and their tight associations with diseases including cancer and mental disorders. The first KDM inhibitors for KDM1 have entered clinical trials, and
