Description

2-Amino-4-chloro-6-methylpyridine (2ACP) is a molecule that has been studied by molecular modeling. This compound inhibits the enzyme tyrosine phosphatase, which is involved in the transmission of signals from outside the cell to inside the cell. 2ACP has a hydrogen bonding interaction with the catalytic site of the enzyme, which blocks its activity and prevents it from transmitting signals to other cells. 2ACP also has an inhibitory effect on fructus amomi and diamine tetraacetic acid (DTA), which are both enzymes involved in bacterial phosphorus metabolism. The structural analysis of 2ACP shows two protonated amino groups and one protonated pyridine group, which may explain its inhibitory effect on these enzymes.
