BAM15 (N5,N6-bis(2-fluorophenyl)[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-b]pyrazine-5,6-diamine) is a synthetic small-molecule mitochondrial protonophore uncoupler that has emerged as a paradigm-shifting research tool for metabolic disease investigation since its initial characterization in 2014. Unlike classical uncouplers such as DNP and FCCP, BAM15 selectively uncouples oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria without affecting plasma membrane potential, conferring a substantially wider therapeutic window and reduced cytotoxicity.

The compound's discovery emerged from systematic screening at the University of New South Wales and Virginia Tech to identify mitochondrial uncouplers with improved safety profiles. BAM15 demonstrates an EC50 of approximately 270 nM for mitochondrial uncoupling while maintaining cellular viability at concentrations where FCCP becomes cytotoxic. As of early 2026, BAM15 has been the subject of over 50 peer-reviewed publications spanning metabolic disease, oncology, sepsis, cardiovascular biology, neurodegeneration, and aging research.

Key Research Highlights

Research AreaKey Finding
