Descriptor inhibidores de la síntesis de ácidos grasos
Scope note: Compuestos que interfieren con las ÁCIDO GRASO SINTASAS que determinan una reducción de los ÁCIDOS GRASOS. En los seres humanos es el mecanismo diana de algunos ANTINEOPLÁSICOS y FÁRMACOS ANTIOBESIDAD, así como de algunos ANTIINFECCIOSOS que interfieren con la formación de la PARED CELULAR y de la MEMBRANA CELULAR.
