Description

Z-DL-Ala-OH is a hydration inhibitor that binds to the active site of enzymes and blocks the catalysis of their substrates. It has been shown to inhibit enzymes such as cytosolic Ca2+-ATPase, butanol dehydrogenase, and acetylcholinesterase. Z-DL-Ala-OH also has anti-inflammatory effects and may be used for the treatment of epilepsy. Z-DL-Ala-OH inhibits the production of cytosolic Ca2+, which leads to a decrease in intracellular free Ca2+ ions and an increase in free Mg2+ ions. This change in ionic balance inhibits the activity of proton pumps, leading to inhibition of neurotransmitter release. The molecular modeling study showed that Z-DL-Ala-OH binds well to carbamazepine’s binding site on the enzyme with high affinity, suggesting that it could be used as a drug for treating epilepsy
