Methyl Diethyldithiocarbamate (CAS 686-07-7)
QUICK LINKS
Methyl diethyldithiocarbamate interacts with cellular components by binding to metal ions, particularly copper and zinc, within the cell. This interaction disrupts the normal function of these metal ions, leading to inhibition of various cellular processes. Methyl diethyldithiocarbamate interferes with the activity of metalloenzymes. This disruption ultimately leads to impaired cellular respiration and energy production. Methyl diethyldithiocarbamate induces oxidative stress within the cell, leading to damage of cellular components such as proteins, lipids, and DNA. Methyl diethyldithiocarbamate also influences cellular signaling pathways, particularly those involved in regulating cell growth and survival. The interaction of methyl diethyldithiocarbamate with cellular components leads to significant disruption of normal cellular function and can ultimately result in cell death.
