PF-9366 (72882-78-1) is an allosteric inhibitor (IC50?= 420 nM) of methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (Mat2A), the primary enzyme responsible for extrahepatic synthesis of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM).1?It inhibited cellular SAM production in H520 lung and Huh-7 liver cancer cells with IC50’s of 1.2 μM and 225 nM respectively.
PF-9366 is a novel inhibitor of human methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (Mat2A), the extrahepatic isoform.
