Cell Penetrant Inhibitors of the KDM4 and KDM5 Families of Histone Lysine Demethylases. 1. 3‑Amino-4-pyridine Carboxylate Derivatives
Optimization
of KDM6B (JMJD3) HTS hit <b>12</b> led to the
identification of 3-((furan-2-ylmethyl)Âamino)Âpyridine-4-carboxylic
acid <b>34</b> and 3-(((3-methylthiophen-2-yl)Âmethyl)Âamino)Âpyridine-4-carboxylic
acid <b>39</b> that are inhibitors of the KDM4 (JMJD2) family
of histone lysine demethylases. Compounds <b>34</b> and <b>39</b> possess activity, IC<sub>50</sub> ≤ 100 nM, in KDM4
family biochemical (RFMS) assays with ≥50-fold selectivity
against KDM6B and activity in a mechanistic KDM4C cell imaging assay
(IC<sub>50</sub> = 6–8 μM). Compounds <b>34</b> and <b>39</b> are also potent inhibitors of KDM5C (JARID1C)
(RFMS IC<sub>50</sub> = 100–125 nM)
