Roles Classification
Biological Role(s): autophagy inducer
Any compound that induces the process of autophagy (the self-digestion of one or more components of a cell through the action of enzymes originating within the same cell).
ferroptosis inducer
Any substance that induces or promotes ferroptosis (a type of programmed cell death dependent on iron and characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides) in organisms.
metabolite
Any intermediate or product resulting from metabolism. The term 'metabolite' subsumes the classes commonly known as primary and secondary metabolites.
(via heme )
prosthetic group
A tightly bound, specific nonpolypeptide unit in a protein determining and involved in its biological activity.
(via heme )
cofactor
