L-Penicillamine
Catalog No. A69198

L-Penicillamine is an orally active inhibitor of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT), targeting the PLP cofactor to form adducts that inhibit SPT activity and subsequently reduce sphingolipid biosynthesis. This compound not only restricts tumor access to vitamin B6 but also stabilizes the human papillomavirus 16 E6 oncoprotein monomer, inhibiting its polymerization and demonstrating a distinct anticancer mechanism. In preclinical studies, L-Penicillamine has been shown to delay the growth of Sarcoma-180, induce tumor necrosis, and extend survival. Caution is advised for long-term use due to potential risks of Pyridoxine deficiency and weight loss.
