2,6,4'-Trihydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone shows weak inhibitory activity of testosterone 5alpha-reductase, it also shows significant inhibition of pancreatic lipase activity.

In cells D-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) is generated when glucose is phosphorylated by hexokinase or glucokinase or by the conversion of glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase during glycogenolysis. G6P lies at the beginning of both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathways. It also can be stored as glycogen when blood glucose levels are high.

Thioredoxin reductase peptide corresponds to residues 53–67 in thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), used in thioredoxin reductase research.Mammalian thioredoxin reductase (TR) catalyzes the reduction of the redox-active disulfide bond of thioredoxin (Trx) and is similar in structure and mechanism to glutathione reductase except for a C-terminal 16-amino acid extension containing a rare vicinal selenylsulfide bond.
