  • Tool name: AKR1C3 inhibitor CRT0036521 Small Molecule (Tool Compound)
  • Molecular formula: C16H15NO4S
  • Tool sub type: Inhibitor
  • Primary target: AKR1C3
  • Description: CRT0036521 is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of the Type 5 17-?-Hydroxysteroid. A high-throughput screen identified 3-(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-ylsulfonyl)benzoic acid as a novel, highly potent (low nM), and isoform-selective (1500-fold) inhibitor of aldo-keto reductase AKR1C3: a target of interest in both breast and prostate cancer. Crystal structure studies showed that the carboxylate group occupies the oxyanion hole in the enzyme, while the sulfonamide provides the correct tw...
