Description

3-Bromoadamantane-1-carboxylic acid is a potent inhibitor of sphingosine kinase. It is a synthetic compound that was developed to inhibit the activity of sphingosine kinase and thus reduce the levels of sphingosines in cells. 3-Bromoadamantane-1-carboxylic acid has been shown to be effective against multikinases, including caspases and protein kinases. The drug is also able to inhibit tumor growth in animals. The mechanism by which 3-bromoadamantane-1-carboxylic acid inhibits tumor growth is unknown but may involve its ability to bind to the ATP binding site on the enzyme complex or its ability to form a noncompetitive inhibitor with ATP.
