GSK 2801

GSK2801 is a potent, selective and cell active acetyl-lysine competitive inhibitor of BAZ2A(Kd=136 nM) and BAZ2B(Kd=257 nM) bromodomains.IC50 value: 136 nM/257 nM(Kd, BAZ2A/BAZ2B) [1]Target: BAZ2A/2B inhibitorGSK2801 binds to BAZ2 bromodomains with dissociation constants (KD) of 136 and 257 nM for BAZ2B and BAZ2A, respectively. Crystal structures demonstrated a canonical acetyl-lysine competitive binding mode. Cellular activity was demonstrated using fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) monitoring displacement of GFP-BAZ2A from acetylated chromatin. A pharmacokinetic study in mice showed that GSK2801 had reasonable in vivo exposure after oral dosing, with modest clearance and reasonable plasma stability. Thus, GSK2801 represents a versatile tool compound for cellular and in vivo studies to understand the role of BAZ2 bromodomains in chromatin biology.
