lysosomes. In this study, we show that the homologous members of the human Atg8 family proteins, LC3A and LC3B, are druggable by a small molecule inhibitor novobiocin. Structure–activityrelationship (SAR) studies of the 4-hydroxy coumarin core scaffold were performed, supported by a crystalstructure of the LC3A dihydronovobiocin complex. The study reports the first nonpeptideinhibitors for these protein

The present study describes our continued efforts in the discovery and characterization of a series of 2-sulfonamidebenzamides as allosteric modulators of MrgX1. MrgX1 has been shown to be an attractive target as a nonopioid receptor for the potential treatment of chronic pain. Working from our original compound, ML382, and utilizing iterative medicinal chemistry, we have identified key halogen substituents
