1. BRD4(BD1) (targets Met149 residue in the bromodomain binding pocket, IC50 for BRD4(BD1) = 12 nM) [1]
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
1. Covalent binding activity: ZEN-3219 selectively forms a covalent bond with Met149 in BRD4(BD1) via its epoxide warhead; thermal denaturation assays confirmed that the compound increased the melting temperature of BRD4(BD1) by 12 °C, while no significant thermal shift was observed for other bromodomains (e.g., BRD2(BD1), BRD3(BD1)), indicating high target selectivity [1]
2. Bromodomain binding inhibition: ZEN-3219 inhibited the interaction between BRD4(BD1) and acetylated lysine (AcLys) peptides with an IC50 of 12 nM; MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry verified the formation of a covalent adduct between the compound and BRD4(BD1), with no detectable adducts formed with other BET family bromodomains [1] 3. Antiproliferative activity: In MV4-11 acute myeloid leukemia cells (BET-dependent cell line), ZEN-3219 exhibited durable antiproliferative effects; after a 24 h treatment with 50 nM of the compound followed by washout, cell proliferation remained inhibited by 78% at 72 h post-washout, whereas non-covalent BET inhibitors showed only 22% inhibition under the same conditions [1] 4. Transcriptional inhibition: ZEN-3219 suppressed the transcription of BRD4-dependent genes (e.g., MYC, BCL2) in MV4-11 cells; qRT-PCR results showed that 50 nM of the compound reduced MYC mRNA levels by 65% and BCL2 mRNA levels by 58% at 24 h, with the inhibitory effect persisting for 48 h post-compound washout [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
1. Thermal denaturation assay: Purified BRD4(BD1) protein was incubated with serial concentrations of ZEN-3219 (0.1-1000 nM) in a buffer system for 1 h at room temperature. The sample was subjected to a temperature gradient (25-95 °C) in a thermal shift instrument, and the melting temperature (Tm) of the protein was calculated based on fluorescence signals from a dye that binds to unfolded protein. The change in Tm was used to evaluate the compound’s binding affinity and covalent interaction with BRD4(BD1) [1]
2. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry assay for covalent adduct detection: Purified BRD4(BD1) was incubated with ZEN-3219 (100 nM) for 2 h at 37 °C, then desalted to remove unbound compound. The protein sample was analyzed via MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and the mass shift of BRD4(BD1) was calculated to confirm the formation of a covalent adduct (mass increase consistent with the molecular weight of ZEN-3219 minus the epoxide ring-opening moiety) [1] 3. X-ray crystallography assay: ZEN-3219 was co-crystallized with BRD4(BD1) protein, and the crystal structure was resolved at 1.8 Å resolution. The structure confirmed that the epoxide warhead of ZEN-3219 forms a covalent bond with the sulfur atom of Met149 in BRD4(BD1), while the core scaffold of the compound occupies the AcLys binding pocket, blocking the interaction with acetylated histones [1] |
| Cell Assay |
1. Cell proliferation assay: MV4-11 cells were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 5×10³ cells per well and incubated for 12 h to attach. The cells were treated with serial dilutions of ZEN-3219 (1-1000 nM) for 24 h, followed by washing to remove unbound compound and further incubation for 48 h. A cell viability detection reagent was added to each well and incubated for 3 h at 37 °C, and absorbance was measured to calculate cell proliferation inhibition rates and evaluate the durability of the compound’s antiproliferative effect [1]
2. qRT-PCR for gene transcription detection: MV4-11 cells were treated with ZEN-3219 (50 nM) for 24 h, with a non-covalent BET inhibitor as a control (same concentration). Total RNA was extracted from the cells, reverse-transcribed into cDNA, and amplified using specific primers for MYC, BCL2, and reference genes. The relative mRNA expression levels were calculated via the 2^(-ΔΔCt) method to assess the compound’s effect on BRD4-dependent gene transcription [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
1. ZEN-3219 is a novel covalent BET inhibitor designed by linking an epoxy group to a non-covalent BRD4(BD1) inhibitor backbone, which targets the Met149 residue in the BRD4(BD1) binding pocket[1]. 2. The covalent binding mechanism of ZEN-3219 is the reaction of the epoxy group with the sulfur-containing side chain of Met149 to form a stable covalent adduct, which irreversibly blocks the AcLys binding pocket of BRD4(BD1), thereby persistently inhibiting BRD4-mediated transcriptional regulation[1]. 3. ZEN-3219 represents a new BET inhibitor development strategy, namely, by covalently modifying methionine residues, this strategy has higher target selectivity and more durable efficacy compared with non-covalent BET inhibitors[1].
