Biochem/physiol Actions
GSK837149A is the first selective inhibitor of human fatty acid synthase (FAS) known to act specifically and selectively on the KR activity of the enzyme. It was first isolated as a minor impurity in a sample found to be active against the enzyme in a high-throughput screening campaign. This compound and its analogs synthesized, all being symmetrical structures containing a bisulfonamide urea, act by inhibiting the beta-ketoacyl reductase activity of the enzyme. GSK837149A inhibits FAS in a reversible mode, with a Ki value of approximately 30 nm, and it possibly binds to the enzyme-ketoacyl-ACP complex. Although initial results suggest that cell penetration for these compounds is impaired, they still can be regarded as useful tools with which to probe and explore the beta-ketoacyl reductase active site in FAS, helping in the design of new inhibitors.

Human cancers require fatty acid synthase (FASN)-dependent de novo long-chain fatty acid synthesis for proliferation. FASN is therefore an attractive drug target, but fast technologies for reliable label-free cellular compound profiling are lacking. Recently, MALDI-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) has emerged as

De novo synthesis of fatty acids is essential to maintain intensive proliferation of cancer cells. Unlike normal cells that utilize food-derived circulating lipids for their fuel, cancer cells rely on heightened lipogenesis irrespective of exogenous lipid availability. Overexpression and activity
