Descripción

Application

4,6-Dioxoheptanoic acid has been used:

• as component of dendritic cell conditioning medium and in the inhibition of ALA dehydratase (ALAD) in dendritic cells(50)
• as an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis in human mononuclear cells(51) and HeLa cells(52)
• as a standard for the quantification of succinylacetone from Plasmodium falciparum cultures(53)

Biochem/physiol Actions

An inhibitor of heme biosynthesis

4,6-Dioxoheptanoic acid is an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis. It is a catabolic byproduct of tyrosine breakdown and inhibits δ-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) dehydratase enzyme. It is a potential marker for detecting tyrosinemia type I and is measured in dried blood spot of new borns.
