MTDIA — Datasheet

Biological Activity

MTDIA, also known as MT-DADMe-ImmA, and Methylthio-DADMe-Immucillin A, is a MTAP inhibitor. Human 5'-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) is solely responsible for 5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) metabolism to permit S-adenosylmethionine salvage. Transition-state (TS) analogues of MTAP are in development as anticancer candidates. TS analogues of MTAP incorporate a cationic nitrogen and a protonated 9-deazaadenine leaving group, which are mimics of the ribocation transition state. MT-ImmA and MT-DADMe-ImmA are two examples of these TS analogues.

Published experimental findings depend on the model and assay conditions. They do not guarantee equivalent performance in every application. For laboratory research use only.
