Fragment-Based Discovery of a Novel, Brain Penetrant, Orally Active HDAC2 Inhibitor.


ABSTRACT: Fragment-based ligand discovery was successfully applied to histone deacetylase HDAC2. In addition to the anticipated hydroxamic acid- and benzamide-based fragment screening hits, a low affinity (∼1 mM) α-amino-amide zinc binding fragment was identified, as well as fragments binding to other regions of the catalytic site. This alternative zinc-binding fragment was further optimized, guided by the structural information from protein-ligand complex X-ray structures, into a sub-μM, brain penetrant, HDAC2 inhibitor (17) capable of modulating histone acetylation levels in vivo.
