Biological Activity

Description TOFA is an allosteric inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase-α (ACCA). Inside the cell, TOFA is converted to TOFyl-CoA (5-tetradecyloxy-2-furoyl-CoA), exerting an allosteric inhibition on ACCA. TOFA blocks fatty acid synthesis and induces cell death in a dose-dependent manner.
Targets
