PF-05221304 is an orally bioavailable, liver-targeted inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), an enzyme that catalyzes the first committed step in de novo lipogenesis (DNL).

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.

25-Pyridinedicarboxylic Acid is used in the preparation of new derivatives as antiviral agents.
