Beschreibung

Homoglutathione is a glutathione analog that contains an extra b-alanine residue. Homoglutathione has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of fatty acid synthesis. It inhibits the activity of the enzyme, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which catalyzes the conversion of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA. Homoglutathione also binds to and inhibits cytoplasmic proteins, such as glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase. The binding of homoglutathione to these proteins prevents the formation of the active site by preventing the hydrogen bonding between amino acid residues. This process is important in energy metabolism because it regulates the production of ATP from ADP and phosphate.
