Uses
(S)-Bromoenol lactone ((S)-BEL) is an irreversible, chiral, mechanism-based inhibitor of calcium-independent phospholipase A2β (iPLA2β) that inhibits the vasopressin-induced release of arachidonate from cultured rat aortic smooth muscle (A10) cells with an IC50 of 2 μM[1].
Definition
ChEBI: (S)-Bromoenol lactone is a member of naphthalenes.
