Biochem/physiol Actions

6-Hydroxy-DL-DOPA is an inhibitor of APE1 (apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease) repair-function activity. APE1 is a nuclease crucial for DNA base excision repair pathway. 6-Hydroxy-DL-DOPA also blocks RAD52 (DNA repair protein) single-stranded DNA binding domain.
Precursor 6-hydroxydopamine.
Precursor of the catecholaminergic neurotoxin, 6-hydroxydopamine; converted to 6-hydroxydopamine by L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase.

Disclaimer

Hygroscopic; photosensitive

Suppression of RAD52 causes synthetic lethality in BRCA-deficient cells. Yet pharmacological inhibition of RAD52, which binds single-strand DNA (ssDNA) and lacks enzymatic activity, has not been demonstrated. Here, we identify the small molecule 6-hydroxy-DL-dopa (6-OH-dopa) as a major allosteric inhibitor

The reaction with substrates and carbonyl reagents of native lentil Cu-amine oxidase and its modified forms, i.e. Cu-fully-depleted, Cu-half-reconstituted, Cu-fully-reconstituted, Co-substituted, Ni-substituted and Zn-substituted, has been studied. Upon removal of only one of the two Cu ions, the enzyme loses

Although several nucleo(s)tide analogs are available for treatment of HBV infection, long-term treatment with these drugs can lead to the emergence of drug-resistant viruses. Recent HIV-1 studies suggest that combination therapies using nucleo(s)tide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and non-nucleo(s)tide reverse
