Abstract

We discovered inhibitors of the restriction enzymes EcoRI, BamHI and HindIII by screening our library of compounds with a phenethylphenylphthalimide skeleton, based on α-glucosidase inhibitors and liver X receptor antagonists derived from thalidomide. Structural development afforded the potent restriction enzyme inhibitors 25 and 26.
