Bioactivity | Trivalent hydroxyarsinothricn (R-AST-OH) is a covalent and irreversible kidney-type glutaminase (KGA) inhibitor. Trivalent hydroxyarsinothricn binds to the glutamine binding site and forms a covalent bond with an active site cysteine residue. Trivalent hydroxyarsinothricn selectively kills triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and is not cytotoxic to the control cell line. KGA is the enzyme that controls glutamine metabolism and is correlated with tumor malignancy[1]. |
