Involved in the tyrosine degradation pathway, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) is an important target for treating type I tyrosinemia. To discover novel HPPD inhibitors, we proposed a hydrophobicity-oriented drug design (HODD) strategy based on the interactions between HPPD and the commercial drug NTBC. Most of the new compounds showed improved activity, compoundd23being the most active candidate (IC50= 0.047 μM) with about 2-fold more potent than NTBC (IC50= 0.085 μM). Therefore, compoundd23is a potential drug candidate to treat type I tyrosinemia.
