Dual screening of BPTF and Brd4 using protein-observed fluorine NMR uncovers new bromodomain probe molecules. ACS Chem Biol. 2015 Jul 9; Authors: Urick AK, Hawk LM, Cassel MK, Mishra NK, Liu S, Adhikari N, Zhang W, Dos Santos CO, Hall JL, Pomerantz WC Abstract Bromodomain-containing protein dysregulation is linked to cancer, diabetes, and inflammation. Selec-tive inhibition of bromodomain function is a newly proposed therapeutic strategy. We describe a 19F NMR dual screening method for small molecule discovery using fluorinated tryptophan resonances on two bromodomain-containing proteins. The chemical shift dispersion of 19F resonances within fluorine-labeled proteins enables the simultaneous analysis of two fluorinated bromodomains by NMR. A li-brary of 229 small molecules was screened against the first bromodomain of Brd4 and the BPTF bro-modomain. We report the first small molecule selective for BPTF over Brd4, termed AU1. The Kd = 2.8 ?M for AU1 which is active in a cell-based reporter assay. No binding is detected with Brd4. Three new Brd4 inhibitors with submicromolar affinity were also discovered. Brd4 hits were validated in a thermal stability assay and potency determined via fluorescence anisotropy. The speed, ease of interpretation, and low protein concentration needed for protein-observed 19F NMR experiments in a multi-protein format, offers a new method to discover and characterize selective ligands for bromodomain-containing proteins.
