Caracemide (NSC-253272) 可以抑制大肠杆菌的核糖核苷酸还原酶。Caracemide是衍生自异羟肟酸的新型抗癌药，会产生严重的中枢神经系统 (CNS) 毒性。
Caracemide (NSC-253272) inhibits the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase of Escherichia coli. Caracemide is a novel anticancer agent derived from a hydroxamic acid and has demonstrated to produce severe central nervous system (CNS) toxicity[1][2].
Caracemide inactivates R1 by covalent modification at the substrate-binding site and has a toxic metabolite, methylisocyanate (MIC), in vivo[1][2].
The mercapturic acid derivative AMCC was identified in urine rats following administration to rats of a single i.p. dose (6.6 mg/kg) of caracemide (NSC-253272)[1]. .
