IDH3B inhibitors are chemical compounds designed to target the IDH3B (Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 3B) protein, which is a critical enzyme involved in cellular energy metabolism and the citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle. This enzyme is part of the isocitrate dehydrogenase family and is responsible for catalyzing the conversion of isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate (α-KG) in the mitochondria. This reaction is vital for the generation of NADH, a key electron carrier in cellular respiration, and for supplying the cell with α-KG, an essential intermediate in various metabolic pathways, including the tricarboxylic acid cycle and amino acid synthesis.
Inhibitors targeting IDH3B are designed to interact with the protein and modulate its activity, potentially interfering with its ability to catalyze the conversion of isocitrate to α-KG. These inhibitors may operate through various mechanisms, such as binding to specific sites on IDH3B or altering its conformation. By inhibiting IDH3B, these compounds can impact the metabolic flux within the citric acid cycle, affecting the production of NADH and α-KG, which are crucial for cellular bioenergetics and biosynthetic pathways.
