Abstract

Diacylglycerol acyltransferase, DGAT1, is a promising target enzyme for obesity due to its involvement in the committed step of triglyceride biosynthesis. Amino biphenyl carboxylic acids, exemplified by compound 4, are known potent inhibitors of hDGAT1. However the high cLogP and poor solubility of these biphenyl analogs might tend to limit their development. We have synthesized and evaluated compounds containing 3- ...
