Targets

General Function:
Glyceraldehyde oxidoreductase activity
Specific Function:
Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of a wide variety of carbonyl-containing compounds to their corresponding alcohols with a broad range of catalytic efficiencies.
Gene Name:
AKR1B1
Uniprot ID:
P15121
Molecular Weight:
35853.125 Da
Mechanism of Action:
Moniliformin has been shown to interfere with carbohydrate metabolism by inhibiting transketolase and aldose reductase.

General Function:
Thiamine pyrophosphate binding
Specific Function:
The 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of 2-oxoglutarate to succinyl-CoA and CO(2). It contains multiple copies of three enzymatic components: 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (E1), dihydrolipoamide succinyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3).
Gene Name:
OGDH
Uniprot ID:
Q02218
Molecular Weight:
115934.37 Da
Mechanism of Action:
Moniliformin reversibly inhibits the enzymes pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase by competing for the binding site of pyruvate. This interferes with the tricarboxylic acid cycle by preventing the necessary incorporation of pyruvate and oxidation of the alpha-ketoglutarate intermediate.
