Glutaminase

Glutaminase inhibitors block conversion of glutamine to glutamate, the first step of glutaminolysis. The glutaminase 1 (GLS1) gene encodes kidney-type glutaminase (KGA) and its splice variant glutaminase C (GAC), while the glutaminase 2 (GLS2) gene encodes the liver-type enzyme. In 2009 the transcription factor c-Myc was shown to raise mitochondrial glutaminase levels by suppressing two microRNAs. A 2010 study linked mitochondrial glutaminase activity to oncogenic transformation driven by Rho GTPases. Telaglenastat, BPTES and UPGL00004 are allosteric inhibitors of GLS1 enzymes. 6-Diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine and its prodrug JHU-083 act more broadly as glutamine antagonists. ZED-1227 and GK921 inhibit transglutaminase 2, a distinct enzyme also listed here.
