4-Acetamidophenyl acetate, an impurity of Acetaminophen, which is a selective COX-2 inhibitor (IC50: 25.8 μM) and a potent hepatic N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) inhibitor.
Monosodium N-acetylglutamate is the sodium salt of N-acetylglutamate, biosynthesized from glutamate and acetylornithine by ornithine acetyltransferase, and from glutamic acid and acetyl-CoA by the enzyme N-acetylglutamate synthase.
MeIQx (MeIQx) is a food-derived carcinogen that has been found in high temperature-cooked fish and meats.1It is activated by hydroxylation and subsequent O-acetylationviathe cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP1A2 and N-acetyltransferase 2, respectively, in UV5 cells expressing the human enzymes to a metabolite that reacts with DNA to form adducts.2MeIQx (200 and 400 ppm in the diet) induces tumor formation in rats.3
CAY10685 is a cell-active analog of the lysine acetyltransferase inhibitor CPTH2 that contains an alkyne moiety for use in click chemistry reactions. Its ability to inhibit N-acetyltransferase 10 activity has been used to modulate chromatin organization in order to study changes in nuclear architecture associated with cancer and certain laminopathies.
Diethylnorspermine, also known as DENSPM, BE-333, DE-333 and N(1),N(11)-Diethylnorspermine, is a highly potent known inducer of the polyamine catabolic enzyme, spermidine spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT). A designed polyamines (PAs) analog which induces cell cycle arrest, inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in melanoma, breast, prostate, lung and colon cancer cells..
GlmU-IN-5175178 is an inhibitor of the acetyltransferase activity of Escherichia coli N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate-uridyltransferase glucosamine-1-phosphate-acetyltransferase (GlmU).
