Abstract :
Biotinylated analogs of drug candidates provide useful tools for studying the drug--target protein interactions. Polyhalogenated N,N diarylureas are potent activators of adenosine monophosphate-activated kinase (AMPK) and potentially promising agents for the treatment of cancer. Various biotinylated versions of these N,N -diarylureas were synthesized and evaluated in AMPK-activation studies.
