Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) catalyzes the fourth committed step in the de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines. As rapidly proliferating human T cells have an exceptional requirement for de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis, small molecule DHODH inhibitors constitute an attractive therapeutic approach to autoimmune diseases, immunosuppression, and cancer ...
