Advances in Membrane-Bound Catechol-<i>O</i>-Methyltransferase Stability Achieved Using a New Ionic Liquid-Based Storage Formulation
Membrane-bound catechol-<i>O</i>-methyltransferase (MBCOMT), present in the brain and involved in the main pathway of the catechol neurotransmitter deactivation, is linked to several types of human dementia, which are relevant pharmacological targets for new potent and nontoxic inhibitor...
