Product Description: Gambogenic acid is an active ingredient that can be isolated from gamboge. Gambogenic acid acts as an effective inhibitor of EZH2, specifically and covalently binds to Cys668 within the EZH2-SET domain, and induces EZH2 ubiquitination. Gambogenic acid can be used for the research of cancer[1][2].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C38H46O8
