malfunction | colorectal cancer cells, that exhibit low levels of NMNAT2 and are refractory to tiazofurin, can be rendered sensitive to Tiazofurin by overexpressing NMNAT2 | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | tiazofurin is a pro-drug that is metabolized by cytosolic nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase2 (NMNAT2) to thiazole-4-carboxamide adenine dinucleotide, a potent inhibitor of inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase required for cellular guanylate synthesis. Resistance of colorectal cancer cell-kill to Tiazofurin can be overcome by sequentially overexpressing hNMNAT2 and then facilitating the uptake of Tiazofurin by folate-tethered nanoparticles, which enter cells via folate receptors | Homo sapiens |
