TL;DR
Findings validate the diphenylpyrazine scaffold as a promising chemotype for Skp2–Cks1 inhibition and identify C3 as a strong lead for further optimization.
Findings identify Fumiquinazoline D as an early‐stage biochemical hit for disruption of the Skp2–Cks1 interaction and as a potential scaffold for further mechanistic validation and medicinal‐chemistry investigation.

The interaction between c-Myb and the CBP/p300 KIX domain is a critical transcriptional regulatory event and an attractive target for the development of candidate disruptors of the recombinant c-Myb-KIX interaction. In this study, we used an integrated computational and experimental strategy to identify new small molec...
