Title: Stereoisomeric acylamidomorpholinium carnitine analogues: selective inhibitors of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I and II.

Authors: Savle PS, Pande SV, Lee TS, Gandour RD.

Abstract: Acylamidomorpholinium carnitine analogues, 6-(tetradecanamidomethyl- and -hexadecanamidomethyl)-4,4-dimethylmorpholin-4-ium-2-a cetate, 1, synthesized as complete sets of stereoisomers, were assayed as inhibitors for isozymes of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT). Microsomal CPT isoymes showed modest discrimination among the stereoisomers; while rat-liver mitochondrial CPT-I and CPT-II showed distinct differences. The tetradecanamidomethyl analogue of (2R,6S)-1 activated CPT-I but inhibited CPT-II.
