Abstract

The BRPF (bromodomain and PHD finger-containing) protein family are important scaffolding proteins for assembly of MYST Histone Acetyltransferase complexes. Here, we report the discovery, binding mode, and structure-activity relationship (SAR) of the first potent, selective series of inhibitors of the BRPF1 bromodomain.
