TTLL6 inhibitors belong to a class of compounds designed to specifically target and impede the activity of the enzyme tubulin tyrosine ligase-like 6 (TTLL6). TTLL6 is a member of the tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTLL) family, enzymes crucial for post-translational modification of alpha-tubulin in the assembly and maintenance of microtubules within cells. Microtubules are dynamic cytoskeletal structures that play pivotal roles in cellular processes such as intracellular transport, cell division, and maintenance of cell shape. TTLL6, in particular, is involved in the addition of tyrosine to the C-terminal of alpha-tubulin, a process known as tubulin tyrosination. This modification is essential for regulating microtubule dynamics and stability, influencing their interactions with molecular motors and associated proteins.
TTLL6 inhibitors represents a significant stride in the realm of chemical biology, offering researchers a tool to dissect the intricate mechanisms governing microtubule dynamics within the cellular milieu. By selectively inhibiting TTLL6, these compounds interfere with the tubulin tyrosination process, potentially leading to aberrant microtubule dynamics and cellular consequences. Understanding the impact of TTLL6 inhibition on cellular functions provides valuable insights into the broader regulatory network of microtubule-related processes and opens avenues for further investigations into the physiological and pathological roles of tubulin tyrosination
