The enzyme-directed synthesis is an emerging fragment-based lead discovery approach in which the biological target is able to assemble its own multidentate ligands from a pool of building blocks. Here, we report for the first time the use of the human
acetylcholinesterase
(
AChE
) as an enzyme for the design and synthesis of new potent heterodimeric huprine-based inhibitors. Both the specific click chemistry site within the protein and the regioselectivity of the Huisgen cycloaddition observed suggest promising alternatives in the design of efficient mono- and dimeric ligands of
AChE
. Finally, a detailed computational modelling of the click reaction was conducted to further understand the origin of this
TGS
selectivity.
