Description

Methyl 5-amino-2-methylbenzoate is a potent inhibitor of the B-Raf protein, which is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. Methyl 5-amino-2-methylbenzoate has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Methyl 5-amino-2-methylbenzoate inhibits the activity of b-Raf (a protein that plays a role in cell proliferation and differentiation) by binding to its ATP site and blocking phosphorylation. This inhibition leads to decreased cellular activity, resulting in tumor regression. Methyl 5-amino-2-methylbenzoate also shows efficacy against other proteins, such as BclxL, HSP90, and NF1. It does this by inhibiting their ATP sites and preventing them from functioning properly. For these reasons, methyl 5-amino-2-methylbenzoate is considered a promising drug for fighting cancer.
