Used in pharmaceutical research as a potent and selective inhibitor of specific protein-protein interactions involved in cancer cell signaling pathways. Shows promise in modulating pathways related to tumor growth and apoptosis, particularly in studies targeting neurodegenerative diseases and oncology. Its structure allows for high binding affinity to target proteins, making it valuable in the development of small-molecule therapeutics. Also employed in biochemical assays to study kinase activity and cellular proliferation mechanisms.
