Succinylacetone is an inhibitor of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (Ki = 300 nM for human erythrocyte enzyme).{36832} It inhibits heme biosynthesis and decreases the growth of murine erythroleukemia cells when used at concentrations of 0.1 and 1 mM.{36833} Succinylacetone is an abnormal metabolite of tyrosine that accumulates in hereditary tyrosinemia type I, a disorder characterized by a deficiency in fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH), the final enzyme in tyrosine catabolism.{36834} Without functional FAH, fumarylacetoacetate is converted into succinylacetone. In a rat model of hypertyrosinemia, succinylacetone (40 mg/kg twice daily) increases levels of δ-aminolevulinic acid in urine, decreases heme levels in liver, kidney, spleen, and vascular tissues, and reduces sensitivity of isolated rat aortic rings to endothelium-dependent and -independent vasodilation. Increased levels of succinylacetone has been used as a marker of tyrosinemia type 1.{36835}

  • A powerful effector in both the TetR and revTetR transcriptional regulator systems

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 250 mg

    The tetracycline repressor (TetR) is a transcriptional regulator which normally binds tightly to its palindromic tetO operator DNA, blocking gene expression.{17508} Tet causes the repressor to dissociate from the DNA, allowing transcription to occur. A novel reverse TetR (revTetR) requires tetracycline as a co-repressor to bind tetO and block transcription.{17509,17510} Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) is a powerful effector in both the tetracycline repressor (TetR) and reverse TetR (revTetR) systems, binding the Tet repressor 35-fold more strongly than Tet.{17508,17511} Moreover, anhydrotetracycline poorly binds the 30S ribosomal subunit, compared to Tet,{17512} so it does not act as a general inhibitor of translation and is a poor antibiotic. Perhaps related to this, the concentration of anhydrotetracycline that inhibits eukaryotic cell growth is more than a 1,000-fold above the dose that alters transcription through TetR.{17508}
