Synthesis and evaluation of heterocyclic catechol mimics as inhibitors of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT): Structure with Cmpd18 (1-(biphenyl-3-yl)-3-hydroxypyridin-4(1H)-one)Synthesis and evaluation of heterocyclic catechol mimics as inhibitors of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT): Structure with Cmpd18 (1-(biphenyl-3-yl)-3-hydroxypyridin-4(1H)-one)
Structural highlights
FunctionCOMT_HUMAN Catalyzes the O-methylation, and thereby the inactivation, of catecholamine neurotransmitters and catechol hormones. Also shortens the biological half-lives of certain neuroactive drugs, like L-DOPA, alpha-methyl DOPA and isoproterenol. See Also |
