Product Description: Gamendazole, an indazole carboxylic acid (ICA), is an orally active, selective HSP90AB1 (HSP90BETA) and EEF1A1 (eEF1A) inhibitor. Gamendazole binds to the C-terminal nucleotide binding pocket of HSP90 and cause downregulation of clients AKT1 and ERBB2, but stabilizes the HSP90 heterocomplex. Gamendazole specifically inhibits the actin bundling function of EEF1A1, but does not bind to the nucleotide docking pocket nor inhibits the ribosome charging or protein translation functions of EEF1A1. Gamendazole, an antispermatogenic compound with antifertility effects, has the potential for reversible non-hormonal male contraceptive agent research[1][2].
Applications: Metabolism-protein/nucleotide metabolism
Formula: C18H11Cl2F3N2O2
