摘要: CBP and p300 are two closely related Histone Acetyltransferases (HATs) that interact
with numerous transcription factors and act to increase the expression of their target genes. Both
proteins contain a bromodomain flanking the HAT catalytic domain that is important in binding of
CBP/p300 to chromatin, which offers an opportunity to develop protein-protein interaction inhibitors.
Since their discovery in 2006, CBP/p300 bromodomains have attracted much interest as promising
new epigenetic targets for diverse human diseases, including inflammation, cancer, autoimmune
disorders, and cardiovascular disease. Herein, we present a comprehensive review of the
structure, function, and inhibitors of CBP/p300 bromodomains developed in the last several years,
which is expected to be beneficial to relevant studies.
