tezacaftor

Tezacaftor (VX-661) is a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) corrector. Tezacaftor increases the number of functional CFTR proteins by promoting the proper folding and transport of mutant CFTR proteins to the cell surface, thereby restoring chloride channel function. Tezacaftor is commonly used in cystic fibrosis research.

(Rac)-Tezacaftor ((Rac)-VX-661) is a racemic mixture of the F508del CFTR corrector, Tezacaftor, used in cystic fibrosis research [1].

Tezacaftor-D4 is a deuterated compound of Tezacaftor. Tezacaftor (T2263) has a CAS number of 1152311-62-0. VX-661 is a small molecule that can be used as a corrector of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene function.

Bamocaftor is a CFTR channel (DeltaF508-CFTR mutation) corrector for CF transmembrane conductance regulators designed to restore F508del-CFTR protein function. Combined use of tezacaftor and VX-561 for the treatment of cystic fibrosis patients with F508del/MF.
