Galactokinase
GALK1-IN-1 targets galactokinase 1 (GALK1), an enzyme that plays a key role in galactose metabolism. Galactokinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of galactose to galactose-1-phosphate, the first step in the Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism. By inhibiting GALK1 with an IC50 of 4.2129 μM, the compound prevents the accumulation of galactose that leads to toxic effects. This makes it a valuable tool for studying galactose metabolism and related disorders. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro studies have demonstrated that GALK1-IN-1 is a potent inhibitor of galactokinase with an IC50 of 4.2129 μM. The compound's inhibitory activity has been characterized in enzyme assays. As a small molecule inhibitor targeting GALK1, it is used to study galactose metabolism. These in vitro findings support its applications in metabolic research and the study of galactose-related disorders.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo studies of GALK1-IN-1 are limited as the compound is primarily used as a research tool for in vitro studies. Its ability to inhibit galactokinase suggests potential for in vivo evaluation in models of galactosemia and other galactose metabolism disorders. However, comprehensive in vivo pharmacological studies specifically targeting GALK1-IN-1 are not well documented. The compound is intended for research use only and is not for human therapeutic use.
