6-Aminonicotinamide

6-Aminonicotinamide, a potent antimetabolite of nicotinamide, is competitive NADP+-dependent enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) inhibitor (Ki=0.46 μM). 6-Aminonicotinamide resultis ATP depletion and synergizes with DNA-crosslinking chemotherapy agents, such as Cisplatin (HY-17394), in killing cancer cells[3][4].
