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:
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.
phytoestrogen  Any compound produced by a plant that happens to have estrogenic activity.
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).
plant metabolite  Any eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in plants, the kingdom that include flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms.
protein kinase inhibitor  An EC 2.7.* (P-containing group transferase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of protein kinases.
antibacterial agent  A substance (or active part thereof) that kills or slows the growth of bacteria.
Applications:
geroprotector  Any compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan.
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
