Chemical structures of hydroxyquinolines.

CQ and 8-OHQ are members of the hydroxyquinoline family, and are able to bind copper and actively inhibit the proteasome. Analogs of 8-OHQ with methyl group additions were investigated, and found to exhibit proteasome-inhibitory activity when complexed with copper.
