Abstract: Naturally occurring avermectins are allosteric modulators of glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls) and possess exceptionally potent anthelmintic, acaricidal, and insecticidal activities. Here, we develop photoswitchable azobenzene-avermectin (ABAVM) derivatives, which can be photoactivated upon ultraviolet irradiation. After… read more here.
