Highly selective inhibition of histone demethylases by de novo macrocyclic peptides

The JmjC histone demethylases (KDMs) are linked to tumour cell proliferation and are current cancer targets; however, very few highly selective inhibitors for these are available. Here we report cyclic peptide inhibitors of the KDM4A-C with selectivity over other KDMs / 2OG oxygenases, including clo...
