Fatty Acid Synthase (FASN) is a multifunctional homodimeric enzyme protein, and it is the major enzyme required for the anabolic conversion of dietary carbohydrates to fatty acids. Fatty acid synthase catalyzes the conversion of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, in the presence of NADPH, into long-chain saturated fatty acids.

Human fatty acid synthase is a large homodimeric multifunctional enzyme that synthesizes palmitic acid. The unique carboxyl terminal thioesterase domain of fatty acid synthase hydrolyzes the growing fatty acid chain and plays a critical role in regulating the chain length of fatty acid released. Also, the up-regulation of human fatty acid synthase in a variety of cancer makes the thioesterase a candidate target for therapeutic treatment.

    Yamogenin (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Yamogenin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Yamogenin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Yamogenin (Neodiosgenin) is a diastereomer of diosgenin. Yamogenin antagonizes the activation of the liver X receptor (LXR) in luciferase ligand assay. Yamogenin inhibits triacylglyceride (TG) accumulation through the suppression of gene expression of fatty acid synthesis in HepG2 hepatocytes. Yamogenin is a steroidal saponin that can be obtained from plant species with in vitro cytotoxicity, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. Yamogenin induces cell death via the extrinsic and intrinsic way of apoptosis. Yamogenin inhibits protein denaturation with an IC50 of 1421.92 μg/mL. Yamogenin can be studied in research on gastric cancer.
