Bioactivity | 2-Bromohexadecanoic acid (2-Bromopalmitic acid) can be converted to 2-bromopalmitate (2-BP). 2-BP is a palmitoylation inhibitor targeting DHHC (Asp-His-His-Cys) protein palmitoyltransferase. 2-BP inhibits palmitoylation of GSDME-C during pyroptosis and inhibits BAK/BAX-Caspase 3-GSDME pathway-mediated pyroptosis[1]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | 棕榈酰化促进 GSDME-N 在切割后释放 GSDME-C,2-BP 抑制棕榈酰化过程,而抑制 GSDME-C 的修饰,增加了 GSDME-C 和 GSDME-N 之间的相互作用。2-BP 抑制 TNFa+CHX 诱导的细胞凋亡,但不抑制细胞总死亡[1]。 | ||||||||||||
