AgamOBP1‐Directed Discovery of Repellents to Control the Spread of Mosquito‐Borne Diseases

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
Toward the discovery of novel mosquito repellents, a library of potential binders of AgamOBP1 (secondary amines) generated from two amines and seven aldehydes was designed aiming to enable interactions with critical amino acids at the DEET‐site and to bridge the DEET‐ and Icaridin sIC‐binding pockets. 1H STD NMR spectroscopy in the presence of AgamOBP1
