Highly selective inhibition of histone demethylases by de novo macrocyclic peptides

JmjC histone demethylases (KDMs) are cancer targets due to their links to cell proliferation, but selective inhibition remains a challenge. Here the authors identify potent inhibitors of KDM4A-C—viain vitroselection from a vast library of cyclic peptides—that show selectivity over other KDMs.
