Definition
ChEBI: N-[2-methyl-5-[[[3-(4-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-oxomethyl]amino]phenyl]-5-isoxazolecarboxamide is a member of benzamides.
Biological Activity
AWL-II-38.3 is a potent ephrin-A receptor (EphA3) kinase inhibitor. AWL-II-38.3 does not exhibit significant cellular activity against Src-family kinases nor against b-raf[1][2][1][2].
AWL-II-38.3 fits to LIMK2 and LIMK1 ATP-binding and substrate-binding pockets[2].
