Etamicastat can be used in the research of cardiovascular diseases. Etamicastat (BIA 5-453) is a potent and reversible dopamine-β-hydroxylase (DBH) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 107 nM.
DBHDA is a reagent to convert a Cys into a Dha moiety by reacting with a C-terminal Cys residue and thus allowing the use of recombinant Ubl G76C mutants to prepare probes.
