Lycorine HCl

Catalog Number	ACM2188683-1
CAS Number	2188-68-3
Description	Lycorine HCl is a natural compound that is an amide of the alkaloid lycorine. It has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis and may also act as a proton pump inhibitor. Lycorine HCl has been found to have antiviral activity and may be useful for the treatment of hepatitis, cancer, and other diseases. Lycorine HCl has been shown to be stereoselective, meaning it will only bind to one enantiomer of the enzyme it targets. It binds to the amide group of acetylcholinesterase in order to inhibit its activity and stop the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain. This allows for better transmission of nerve impulses across synapses, which can lead to improved memory function.
