Inhibition of pyrimidine biosynthesis targets protein translation in AML

2021-09-24

Abstract excerpt

The mitochondrial enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) catalyzes one of the rate-limiting steps in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis, a pathway that provides essential metabolic precursors for nucleic acids, glycoproteins and phospholipids. DHODH inhibitors (DHODHi) are clinically used for autoimmune diseases and are emerging as a novel class of anti-cancer agents, especially in acute myeloid leukemia (AML)...
