serine-palmitoyl-transferase (spt)

Myriocin (Thermozymocidin) 是一种从 Myriococcum albomyces 中得到的代谢产物，是一种丝氨酸-棕榈酰转移酶 (SPT) 抑制剂,具有潜在的抗肿瘤抗癌和抗寄生虫活性，通过 PI3K Akt mTOR 通路调节巨噬细胞极化和功能来抑制肿瘤生长。Myriocin 抑制 HCV 感染，可用于研究神经病变和真菌感染。

SPT-IN-1 is an inhibitor of potent serine palmitoyl transferase (SPT).

3-Keto Sphinganine (d12:0) is a short-chain analog of 3-keto sphinganine (d18:0), which typically possesses a C18 chain length. The latter is a lyso-sphingolipid synthesized through the condensation of L-serine and palmitoyl-CoA mediated by the enzyme serine palmitoyl transferase (SPT). A deficiency in Vitamin K deactivates SPT, leading to a reduced synthesis of 3-keto sphinganine among other sphingolipids. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1893]
