Obtusifoliol is a selective inhibitor of cytochrome P450 51 (CYP51), demonstrating affinities with dissociation constants (Kd) of 1.2 μM for Trypanosoma brucei and 1.4 μM for human CYP51. This compound is significant in studies focused on trypanosomiasis, targeting the sterol biosynthesis pathway. Its inhibition of CYP51 may provide valuable insights into therapeutic strategies against related infections and contribute to the understanding of cholesterol metabolism in various biological systems.
