Organic bromides such as alkyl bromides are used as fumigants in agriculture to control insects. 4897-84-1, formula is C5H9BrO2, Name is Methyl 4-bromobutanoate. Ethylene bromide is one of the commercially important organic bromides which are the component of leaded gasoline. Application of C5H9BrO2.
Guo, Menglu;He, Shipeng;Cheng, Junfei;Li, Yu;Dong, Guoqiang;Sheng, Chunquan research published 《 Hydrophobic Tagging-Induced Degradation of PDEδ in Colon Cancer Cells》, the research content is summarized as follows. The development of KRAS-PDEδ protein-protein interaction (PPI) inhibitors is generally hampered by limited antitumor activity. Herein, the first hydrophobic tagging (HyT)-based PDEδ degraders were designed. Compound 17c (I) efficiently bound to PDEδ and induced degradation of PDEδ in SW480 colon cancer cells. As compared with PDEδ inhibitor deltazinone, HyT-based degrader 17c exhibited improved antitumor activity toward KRAS mutant cancer cells. This study highlighted the potential of HyT as a valuable chem. tool for tumorigenic PDEδ knockdown, which could be developed into a promising strategy for antitumor drug discovery.
Application of C5H9BrO2, Methyl 4-bromobutyrate,also as known as 4-Bromobutyric acid methyl ester, is a useful research compound. Its molecular formula is C5H9BrO2 and its molecular weight is 181.03 g/mol. The purity is usually 95%.
4-Bromobutyric acid methyl ester is a synthetic compound that can be used to inhibit the activity of the G1 phase cyclin-dependent kinases. It has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis by alkylating the amino groups of proteins and fatty acids. 4-Bromobutyric acid methyl ester also inhibits the growth of cancer cell lines, such as renal carcinoma cells. The mechanism of action for this drug is not well understood, but it may be due to its ability to bind with monoclonal antibodies and enter kidney cells by passive diffusion., 4897-84-1.
