Description

4-Aminotoluene-3-sulfonic acid (ATSA) is a chemical compound that is used as a solvent in organic synthesis. It has been shown to inhibit the acetylation of histone H3, which may be the cause of autoimmune diseases and metabolic disorders. ATSA also blocks colony-stimulating factor (CSF), which is an effector protein that regulates the proliferation and differentiation of cells, including T cells and B cells. This compound has been used as a model system for studying the mechanism of CSF regulation and intermolecular hydrogen bonding. ATSA binds to CSF by forming hydrogen bonds with amino acid residues on the surface of CSF. Structural analysis has revealed that ATSA interacts with protein in a manner similar to other inhibitors of CSF.
