Roles Classification
Chemical Roles:
antioxidant  A substance that opposes oxidation or inhibits reactions brought about by dioxygen or peroxides.
chelator  A ligand with two or more separate binding sites that can bind to a single metallic central atom, forming a chelate.
radical scavenger  A role played by a substance that can react readily with, and thereby eliminate, radicals.
Biological Roles:
plant metabolite  Any eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in plants, the kingdom that include flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms.
phytoestrogen  Any compound produced by a plant that happens to have estrogenic activity.
antibacterial agent  A substance (or active part thereof) that kills or slows the growth of bacteria.
protein kinase inhibitor  An EC 2.7.* (P-containing group transferase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of protein kinases.
EC 1.10.99.2 [ribosyldihydronicotinamide dehydrogenase (quinone)] inhibitor  An EC 1.10.99.* (oxidoreductases acting on diphenols and related substances as donors, other acceptors) inhibitor that interferes with the action of ribosyldihydronicotinamide dehydrogenase (quinone), EC 1.10.99.2.
Aurora kinase inhibitor  Any protein kinase inhibitor that inhibits the action of an Aurora kinase (a group of serine/threonine kinases that are essential for cell proliferation).
Applications:
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
geroprotector  Any compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan.
