IPI-9119 is an Orally Active, Selective and Irreversible FASN Inhibitor
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a multi-enzyme protein that catalyzes the synthesis of fatty acids. Its main function is to catalyze the synthesis of palmitate (C16:0) from acetyl CoA and malonyl COA in the presence of NADPH. Specifically, FASN is a key enzyme responsible for the synthesis of fatty...
