Abstract

The synthesis, in vitro, and in vivo biological characterization of a series of achiral 5-chloroindoloyl glycine amide inhibitors of human liver glycogen Phosphorylase A are described. Improved potency over previously reported compounds in cellular and in vivo assays was observed. The allosteric binding site of these compounds was shown by X-ray crystallography to be the same as that reported previously for 5-chloroindoloyl norstatine amides.
