General description

Bromopyruvic acid is an affinity label for cysteine residues†. It acts as cross-linker between nucleic acids and proteins. Kinetics of inactivation of pancreatic ribonuclease A by bromopyruvic acid has been investigated.
may contain traces of dibromopyruvic acid

Application

Bromopyruvic acid was used in the synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acids.

Warburg effect enhances glucose to lactate conversion in tumor cells, regardless of oxygen levels; impacting cancer metabolism since 1924.

本页面介绍了一篇有关瓦博格效应的文章,以及其如何能够在正常氧气水平下,增强肿瘤细胞中葡萄糖向乳酸的转化。Otto Heinrich Warburg在1924年证明,癌细胞显示出对糖酵解的依赖性增加,以满足他们的能量需求,无论是否有充足的氧气存在。

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase [EC 4.1.1.31] from Escherichia coli W was alkylated by incubation with bromopyruvate, substrate analog, leading to irreversible inactivation. The reaction followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. Mg2+, an essential cofactor for catalysis, enhanced the inactivation, and the enhancing effect increased as

We have reported in a previous communication a kinetic study showing bromopyruvate to behave as an active-site-directed reagent for flavocytochrome b2. It is shown here that inactivation is accompanied by incorporation of 3 mol reagent/subunit of oxidized intact enzyme and

Cytosine in nucleic acids can be converted into N4-aminocytosine by treatment with a mixture of hydrazine and bisulfite. The hydrazino group thus formed at position 4 of the pyrimidine ring can be linked to a sulhydryl group in proteins by
