SAB Comments

Overall, AZD3988 has very favourable probe properties to study DGAT-1. The probe shows a clear mechanism of action and engages with the target at low nanomolar concentrations, exhibits selectivity for DGAT-1 over DGAT-2 in vitro in cellulo, and in vivo, and there are no common off-target liabilities observed (hERG, P450s). Additionally, the physicochemical properties are fairly drug-like for a probe molecule: 3 H-bond donors, 8 H-bond acceptors, molecular weight of 456.45 Da, logD = 3.0, 7 rotatable bonds, and a calculated tPSA of 112.38 Å2.
