Cafenstrole
VLCFA Biosynthesis Inhibitor
Cafenstrole is a potent VLCFA biosynthesis inhibitor that targets the microsomal elongase enzyme responsible for the elongation of fatty acids with alkyl chains longer than C18. Its inhibitory action inhibits the accumulation of very long-chain fatty acids, making it valuable in studies related to lipid metabolism and herbicide development. Cafenstrole is also useful in research focused on plant biology and fatty acid biosynthesis pathways.
