Herein we report on the multicomponent synthesis of a novel imidazole-based compound, able to act efficiently as a minimalist ß-strand mimic. Biological evaluation proved its ability to impair the LDLR-PCSK9 protein-protein interaction, disclosing it as the first small molecule exerting a PCSK9-mediated hypocholesterolemic effect.
