Roles Classification
Chemical Role(s):	Bronsted base A molecular entity capable of accepting a hydron from a donor (Bronsted acid). (via organic amino compound ) Bronsted acid A molecular entity capable of donating a hydron to an acceptor (Bronsted base). (via oxoacid )

Biological Role(s):	glutamine antagonist An antagonist that acts on glutamine receptors. EC 2.3.2.2 (gamma-glutamyltransferase) inhibitor An EC 2.3.2.* (aminoacyltransferase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2). antimicrobial agent A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans. antileishmanial agent An antiprotozoal drug used to treat or prevent infections caused by protozoan parasites that belong to the genus Leishmania. antimetabolite A substance which is structurally similar to a metabolite but which competes with it or replaces it, and so prevents or reduces its normal utilization. metabolite Any intermediate or product resulting from metabolism. The term 'metabolite' subsumes the classes commonly known as primary and secondary metabolites.

Application(s):	antineoplastic agent A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms. antileishmanial agent An antiprotozoal drug used to treat or prevent infections caused by protozoan parasites that belong to the genus Leishmania.
