Asterric acid (CAS 577-64-0)
QUICK LINKS
Asterric acid is a compound that functions as a potent inhibitor of certain enzymes involved in cellular processes. It exerts its mechanism of action by binding to the active site of the target enzyme, thereby preventing the substrate from binding and inhibiting the enzymatic activity. This inhibition disrupts specific biochemical pathways, leading to downstream effects on cellular function. Asterric acid′s mechanism of action involves interfering with the catalytic activity of the enzyme, ultimately impacting the cellular processes in which the enzyme is involved. Asterric Acid′s ability to selectively inhibit these enzymes may be useful for studying the roles of these enzymes in various cellular pathways. Its mechanism of action at the molecular level provides insights into the specific functions of the targeted enzymes, contributing to a better understanding of cellular processes.
