As regulators of transcription, epigenetic proteins that interpret post-translational modifications to N-terminal histone tails are essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. When dysregulated, "reader" proteins become drivers of disease. In the case of bromodomains, which recognize N-?-acetylated lysine, selective inhibition of individual bromodomain-and-extra-terminal (BET)-family bromodomains has proven challenging. We describe the >55-fold N-terminal-BET bromodomain selectivity of 1,4,5-trisubstituted-imidazole dual kinase-bromodomain inhibitors. Selectivity for the BRD4 N-terminal bromodomain (BRD4(1)) over its second bromodomain (BRD4(2)) arises from the displacement of ordered waters and the conformational flexibility of lysine-141 in BRD4(1). Cellular efficacy was demonstrated via reduction of c-Myc expression, inhibition of NF-κB signaling, and suppression of IL-8 production through potential synergistic inhibition of BRD4(1) and p38α. These dual inhibitors provide a new scaffold for domain-selective inhibition of BRD4, the aberrant function of which plays a key role in cancer and inflammatory signaling.

Selective inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is an important therapeutic approach to target neurodegenerative disorders. However, the majority of the nNOS inhibitors developed are arginine mimetics and, therefore, suffer from poor bioavai
