Description

6,7-Dihydroxycoumarin-4-acetic acid is a natural compound that has been shown to have suppressive effects on growth in vitro. It inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids and fatty acid esters by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme fatty acid synthase. 6,7-Dihydroxycoumarin-4-acetic acid also inhibits fatty ester accumulation by preventing acyl transferase from transferring acyl groups to the glycerol backbone. The concentration of 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin-4-acetic acid required for suppression is dependent on the nature of the substrate being metabolized. 6,7-Dihydroxycoumarin-4-acetic acid can be used as a fluorescent marker for lipid profiling or aminoacyl synthase profiling. The compound can be isolated from many plants such as Cucurbita maxima and Cucurbita mosch
