Produktinformation

• Name: 3-(Methoxycarbonyl)-5-methylbenzoic acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 3-(Methoxycarbonyl)-5-methylbenzoic acid is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase. It has been shown to inhibit the production of uric acid in cell-based assays, and also inhibits the enzyme xanthine dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the conversion of hypoxanthine to xanthine. 3-(Methoxycarbonyl)-5-methylbenzoic acid is a low nanomolar inhibitor of the enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase and is selective for this target over other enzymes such as cytochrome P450. 3-(Methoxycarbonyl)-5-methylbenzoic acid has an isostere group that binds to a subpocket on the enzyme and blocks access to substrate. The molecular weight of 3-(methoxycarbonyl)-5-methylbenzoic acid makes it suitable for analysis by X-ray crystallography.
