CAS: 24280-93-1 | C17H20O6 | 320.341 g/mol
Supplier: Thermo Scientific Chemicals J6190506
Description
It is used as a small molecule IMPDH inhibitor. mycophenolic Acid is used as an immunosuppressive agent with antiviral and antitumor effects. It potently inhibits inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase, thus inhibiting de novo GTP synthesis leading to decreased RNA and DNA synthesis. It also reversibly inhibits proliferation of T and B lymphocytes and antibody formation.
