A small-molecule compound, GSK2194069, specifically inhibits the β-ketoacyl reductase (KR) activity of the human fatty acid synthase. A co-crystal structure of the KR domain with the inhibitor confirms this interaction.
Human fatty acid synthase (hFAS) is a complex, multifunctional enzyme that is solely responsible for the
