Description

Bromopentafluorobenzene (BPF) is a small-molecule drug that belongs to the discovery group of cyclic peptides. It is structurally similar to natural products and has been shown to be an inhibitor of a transcriptional regulator in a model system. The compound BPF has been shown to act as a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which is involved in the degradation of acetylcholine and thereby leads to increased levels of this neurotransmitter in the brain. Chemical biology studies have shown that BPF binds to the active site of protein target, suppressing its activity by competitive inhibition.
