Bis-2-(5-phenylacetamido-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)ethyl sulfide (BPTES) is a potent and selective allosteric inhibitor of kidney-type glutaminase (GLS) that has served as a molecular probe to determine the therapeutic potential of GLS inhibition. In an attempt to identify more potent GLS inhibitors with improved
The interplay of metabolism and epigenetic regulatory mechanisms has become a focal point for a better understanding of cancer development and progression. In this study, we have acquired data supporting previous observations that demonstrate glutamine metabolism affects histone modifications in
Acute alcohol intoxication in rats with alloxan diabetes is accompanied by the increase of urea and uric acid and by the decrease in free fatty acids in serum. In the liver of experimental animals the increase of activity of glutamate
Nitrogen is incorporated into various metabolites by multifunctional glutamine amidotransferases via reactive ammonia generated by glutaminase hydrolysis of glutamine. Although this process is generally tightly regulated by subsequent synthase activity, little is known about how the glutaminase is inhibited in

Recently, the small molecule 968 was found to block the Rho GTPase-dependent growth of cancer cells in cell culture and mouse xenografts, and when the target of 968 was found to be the mitochondrial enzyme glutaminase (GLS1), it revealed a
