Descripción

1,4-Anthraquinone is a synthetic compound that can be used as an inhibitor of proton transport. This inhibition has been shown to be due to intramolecular hydrogen bonding and the formation of a heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. 1,4-Anthraquinone also inhibits fatty acid synthesis in the hornworm (Manduca sexta) by inhibiting tryptophan fluorescence and preventing proton transport. It can also inhibit Hl-60 cells proliferation through proton transport inhibition. 1,4-Anthraquinone has been found to have potent inhibitory effects on the enzyme pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase, which catalyzes the conversion of pyrimidine nucleosides into uridine monophosphate and deoxyuridine monophosphate. This inhibition may be due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with the enzyme or its ability to interact with water molecules in the active site.
