Product Information

• Name: 7-Bromoimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine

Description

7-Bromoimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine is a potent and selective inhibitor of the enzyme aminolevulinic acid synthetase (ALAS). It is an imidazopyridine derivative that binds to the active site of ALAS with high affinity. This binding prevents the conversion of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) to porphobilinogen, which is required for heme synthesis. 7-Bromoimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine has been shown to inhibit ALAS in both plant and bacterial cells. The inhibition activity of this compound has been well characterized using silico methods and physicochemical properties. Additionally, this drug's interaction with other compounds has been studied using a number of in vitro assays.
