Product Information

• Name: 2-(Hydroxyamino)-2-oxoethylphosphonic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-(Hydroxyamino)-2-oxoethylphosphonic acid is an inhibitor of the enzyme senescent and is used to treat cancer. It inhibits the enzymatic reaction of the enzyme by binding to a hydrogen bond in the active site, thereby preventing its function. The compound has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in vitro and in vivo models. 2-(Hydroxyamino)-2-oxoethylphosphonic acid is also used for diagnostic purposes, as it can be detected in urine samples. This inhibitor binds to a water molecule that reacts with the phosphate group on the phosphonate backbone, which prevents it from binding to other phosphate groups on other molecules. This inhibition leads to a decrease in ATP production, which is essential for cell division.
