Note: Isatin, Cpd 3, CM037, CVT10216, CB7, DEAB, and KS100 were docked into the active site pockets of ALDH1A1, 2, and 3A1. Docking scores were calculated using GLIDE 6.6 in Maestro 10.1. Enzyme inhibition studies for ALDH1A1, 2, and 3A1 were performed as described in the Materials and Methods. KS100 displayed low IC50 values for all three ALDH isoforms tested. Preexisting isoform-specific ALDH inhibitors (Cpd 3 and CM037 for ALDH1A1, CVT10216 for ALDH2, CB7 for ALDH3A1) and the multi-ALDH isoform inhibitor, DEAB, were used as positive controls.
