Enzyme Modulators

Inhibitor of Flk-1/KDR receptor tyrosine kinases, a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGF) receptor expressed on precursor and mature forms of endothelial cells. SU 5416 also inhibits other tyrosine kinases, including c-KIT and FLT-3. Has therapeutic potential as an anti-angiogenic agent for the treatment of cancer.

Inhibits coagulant factor VIIa; anti-thrombotic; antineoplastic

A potent and selective inhibitor of cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK) with Ki of 3.1 nM. The compound has more than 50-fold selectivity over the closest off-target kinase RIPK2, making it a potent tool for the study of GAK biology. SGC-GAK-1 was tested in vitro in human prostate carcinoma cell lines and showed strong growth inhibition in cell lines with androgen-dependent growth.

Tipifarnib is a farnesyltransferase inhibitor, which is a synthetic compound designed for experimental cancer treatment. It functions by targeting farnesyltransferase, an enzyme involved in the post-translational modification of proteins through the attachment of a farnesyl group to the protein's cysteine residue. This modification is crucial for the activity of several proteins, including those in the Ras signaling pathway, which is often dysregulated in cancer. By inhibiting farnesyltransferase, Tipifarnib prevents the proper functioning of these proteins, thereby disrupting key signaling pathways that are essential for cancer cell proliferation and survival. This makes it a molecule of significant interest in oncology research, particularly in cancers with mutations that lead to increased Ras activity. Tipifarnib has shown promise in the treatment of various malignancies, including particular types of leukemias and solid tumors. Its efficacy as a targeted therapy reflects its potential to selectively interfere with cancer growth while minimizing damage to normal cells. The ongoing research into its applications highlights its importance in the development of more effective, less toxic cancer treatments.

Caspase Modulator I is an antibody that binds to the caspase-1 receptor. This protein regulates apoptosis by binding to, and activating, the caspases. Caspase Modulator I can be used as a research tool for studying the molecular mechanisms of apoptosis. It may also be used in pharmacology as an inhibitor or activator of caspases.

Inhibitor of PIP5K1C

Inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase

Cetilistat is a drug that is used to treat obesity. This drug inhibits the enzyme pancreatic lipase and so it prevents triglycerides from being hydrolyzed into absorbable free fatty acids. Cetilistat is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.

During extraction of lecithin from egg yolk, peptide by-products can be isolated and purified by gel filtration. Within the by-products this has led to the discovery of biologically active value-added products. The egg yolk gel filtration (EFGF) fractions were analysed for their antioxidant and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities. EYGF-56 predominantly contained 3 peptides - SDNRNQGY, KGLWE, and IQVPL. KGLWE in EYGF-56 was found to have very strong antioxidant activity. KGLWE showed minimal angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity.

Bruton's tyrosine kinase antagonist; reduces Fcγ receptor signaling

Farnesyltransferase inhibitor

This product is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work.

PI3K/mTOR kinase inhibitor; anti-neoplastic

Carbimazole is an imidazole antithyroid agent that is used to treat hyperthyroidism. It reduces the production of diiodotyrosine and thyroxine, as well as the uptake and concentration of inorganic iodine by the thyroid. Once it has been converted to methimazole, the thyroid peroxidase enzyme is inhibited from coupling and iodinating the tyrosine residues on thyroglobulin therefore lowering the production of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Carbimazole is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.
