Chemical Structure
Methasquin
- CAS. Nr.: 18921-70-5
- Formula:C21H22N6O5
- Molecular Weight:438.44
InChIKey: NTKNUVXCGJPJQP-HNNXBMFYSA-N
SMILES: CC1=C(CNC2=CC=C(C=C2)C(N[C@H](C(O)=O)CC(O)=O)=O)C=CC3=C1C(N)=NC(N)=N3
Biological Activity: Methasquin is an antifolate dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor (antifolate dihydrofolate reductase) with an IC50 of 1.3 nM against dihydrofolate reductase derived from human leukemia cells. Methasquin binds to dihydrofolate reductase, depletes tetrahydrofolate derivatives, disrupts thymidylate synthesis and inhibits DNA synthesis. Methasquin can be used in leukemia-related research[1][2][3][4][5][6].
