A small-molecule inhibitor suppresses the tumor-associated mitochondrial NAD(P)(+)-dependent malic enzyme (ME2) and induces cellular senescence

Here, we found a natural compound, embonic acid (EA), that can specifically inhibit the enzymatic activity of mitochondrial NAD(P)(+)-dependent malic enzyme (m-NAD(P)-ME, ME2) either in vitro or in vivo. The in vitro IC(50) value of EA for m-NAD(P)-ME was 1.4 ± 0.4 μM. Mutagenesis and binding studie...
