Treatment of prostaglandin endoperoxide (PGH) synthase apoprotein with a 100- or 1000-fold excess of N-acetylimidazole (NAI) led to time-dependent inactivation of both cyclooxygenase and peroxide activities.

Cinnamomin is a type II ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) and its A-chain (CTA) is a RNA N-glycosidase. It is observed that modification of tyrosine residues by N-acetylimidazole (N-AI) causes almost complete loss of CTA activity. Adenine partially protects tyrosine residues from
