Disease

SMCA2_HUMAN Defects in SMARCA2 are the cause of Nicolaides-Baraitser syndrome (NCBRS) [MIM:601358. A rare disorder characterized by severe mental retardation with absent or limited speech, seizures, short stature, sparse hair, typical facial characteristics, brachydactyly, prominent finger joints and broad distal phalanges. Some of the features are progressive with time.^[1] ^[2]

Function

SMCA2_HUMAN Transcriptional coactivator cooperating with nuclear hormone receptors to potentiate transcriptional activation. Also involved in vitamin D-coupled transcription regulation via its association with the WINAC complex, a chromatin-remodeling complex recruited by vitamin D receptor (VDR), which is required for the ligand-bound VDR-mediated transrepression of the CYP27B1 gene. Belongs to the neural progenitors-specific chromatin remodeling complex (npBAF complex) and the neuron-specific chromatin remodeling complex (nBAF complex). During neural development a switch from a stem/progenitor to a post-mitotic chromatin remodeling mechanism occurs as neurons exit the cell cycle and become committed to their adult state. The transition from proliferating neural stem/progenitor cells to post-mitotic neurons requires a switch in subunit composition of the npBAF and nBAF complexes. As neural progenitors exit mitosis and differentiate into neurons, npBAF complexes which contain ACTL6A/BAF53A and PHF10/BAF45A, are exchanged for homologous alternative ACTL6B/BAF53B and DPF1/BAF45B or DPF3/BAF45C subunits in neuron-specific complexes (nBAF). The npBAF complex is essential for the self-renewal/proliferative capacity of the multipotent neural stem cells. The nBAF complex along with CREST plays a role regulating the activity of genes essential for dendrite growth (By similarity).^[3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

In the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, the mutually exclusive catalytic ATPase subunits SMARCA2 and SMARCA4 proteins have a synthetic-lethal relationship. Selectively targeting SMARCA2 for degradation is a promising and new therapeutic strategy for human cancers harboring inactivated mutated SMARCA4. In this study, we report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel SMARCA2/4 ligands and our subsequent design of PROTAC degraders using high-affinity SMARCA ligands and VHL-1 ligands. Our efforts led to the discovery of high-affinity SMARCA2/4 bromodomain ligands and the development of a potent and selective SMARCA2 degrader and a highly potent SMARCA2/4 and PBRM1 degrader.
