描述
L-Histidinol, a structural analogue of the essential amino acid L-histidine, enhances the toxicity of a variety of anticancer drugs for many tumor cells of animal origin. (PMID 8297120)
L-histidinol inhibits human Myristoyl- CoA:protein-myristoyltransferase (hNMT) (an essential eukaryotic enzyme that catalyzes the cotranslational transfer of myristate to the NH2-terminal glycine residue of a number of important proteins of diverse function). (PMID 9778369) [HMDB]. L-Histidinol is found in many foods, some of which are chicory roots, yellow bell pepper, globe artichoke, and gram bean.
