Eleven compounds were examined for their capacity to inhibit the first enzyme of the sphingolipid pathway, 3-ketodihydrosphingosine synthetase. Of these, L-cycloserine was the most potent, affecting both bacterial and brain microsomal enzymes to a significant degree at 0.04 mM. D- and L-cycloserine irreversibly inactivated the enzyme, indicating a suicide substrate mode of action. L-Cycloserine was a more potent inhibitor of the growth of Bacteroides levii than was D-cycloserine, indicating that inhibition of sphingolipid synthesis could be a factor in the growth inhibition.
检测了11种化合物抑制鞘脂途径第一种酶——3-酮二氢鞘氨醇合成酶的能力。其中,L-环丝氨酸活性最强,在0.04 mM时对细菌和脑微粒体酶均有显著影响。D-环丝氨酸和L-环丝氨酸均可使该酶不可逆失活,表明其作用模式为自杀底物模式。L-环丝氨酸对产黑色素拟杆菌生长的抑制作用比D-环丝氨酸更强,这表明抑制鞘脂合成可能是抑制生长的一个因素。
