Chemical Structure
SAICAR
- CAS No.: 3031-95-6
- Formula:C13H19N4O12P
- Molecular Weight:454.28
IUPAC Name: (5-amino-1-((2R,3R,4S,5R)-3,4-dihydroxy-5-((phosphonooxy)methyl)tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-1H-imidazole-4-carbonyl)-L-aspartic acid
InChIKey: NAQGHJTUZRHGAC-ZZZDFHIKSA-N
SMILES: O=C(O)C[C@@H](C(O)=O)NC(C1=C(N)N([C@H]2[C@@H]([C@@H]([C@@H](COP(O)(O)=O)O2)O)O)C=N1)=O
Biological Activity: SAICAR is an intermediate of de novo purine nucleotide biosynthesis, activates pyruvate kinase isoform M2 (PKM2) in an isozyme-selective manner, with an EC50 of 0.3 mM. SAICAR stimulates PKM2 and promotes cancer cell survival in glucose-limited conditions[1][2].
