Comparative inhibition of bacterial and microsomal 3-ketodihydrosphingosine synthetases by L-cycloserine and other inhibitors.

Eleven compounds were examined for their capacity to inhibit the first enzyme of the sphingolipid pathway, 3-ketodihydrosphingosine synthetase. Of these, L-cycloserine was the most potent, affecting both bacterial and brain microsomal enzymes to a significant degree at 0.04 mM. D- and L-cycloserine irreversibly inactivated the enzyme, indicating a suicide substrate mode of action. L-Cycloserine was a more potent inhibitor of the growth of Bacteroides levii than was D-cycloserine, indicating that inhibition of sphingolipid synthesis could be a factor in the growth inhibition.[1]
