Discovery of 6-Aryl-7-alkoxyisoquinoline Inhibitors of I kappa B Kinase-beta (IKK-beta)

摘要

The identification and progression of a potent and selective series of isoquinoline inhibitors of I kappa B kinase-beta (IKK-beta) are described. Hit-generation chemistry based on IKK-beta active-site knowledge yielded a weakly potent but tractable chemotype that was rapidly progressed into a series with robust enzyme and cellular activity and significant selectivity over IKK-alpha.
