Coprine is a mycotoxin derived from Coprinopsis atramentaria that functions as an inhibitor of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. By inhibiting this enzyme, coprine leads to the accumulation of acetaldehyde, which can trigger the alcohol flushing reaction in susceptible individuals. This compound is useful in research focused on alcohol metabolism and the effects of acetaldehyde accumulation on physiological processes.
