Belinostat amide is an inhibitor of the histone deacetylase HDAC6, which is a protein that regulates gene expression. Belinostat amide is a peptidomimetic that can be used as a research tool to investigate the role of HDAC6 in cellular processes such as DNA replication and protein synthesis. Belinostat amide binds to the receptor site of HDAC6 and inhibits its function by blocking the enzyme's catalytic activity. It has been shown to inhibit ion channels and antibody production, as well as activate some receptors.
