Description

O-Methyl-DL-tyrosine is a compound that belongs to the group of quinoline derivatives. It has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on epidermal growth factor, which is an amide with a molecular weight of 9,000 Da. This compound also inhibits the synthesis of bacterial proteins by preventing the formation of disulfide bonds between cysteine and thiol groups. O-Methyl-DL-tyrosine has antimicrobial properties that are due to its ability to inhibit protein synthesis in bacteria and viruses. The mechanism of action is due to its hydroxyl group, which binds to the carbonyl group in amino acids such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan.
