Arabidopsis Compound Description
| Knapsack ID | C00000128 |
| PubChem ID | 656563 |
| Compound name | 4-Methoxy-3-indolylmethyl glucosinolate |
| Common Name | 4-Methoxyglucobrassicin |
| Formula | C17H22N2O10S2 |
| SCC Type | Tryptophan derived glucosinolates; Metoxy indolylmethyl glucosinolates |
| SCC Function | The metabolic products of 4-Methoxyglucobrassicin, 4-methoxyindole-3-carbinol inhibited the proliferation of human colon cancer cells and might play a role in the cancer preventive effect of cruciferous vegetables (Kronbak et al 2010). |
