1 In principle, competitive inhibitors of glyoxalase I that also serve as substrates for the thioester hydrolase glyoxalase II might function as tumor-selective anti-cancer agents, given the role of these enzymes in removing cytotoxic methylglyoxal from cells and the observation that glyoxalase II activity is abnormally low in some types of cancer cells. Pyruvaldehyde glyoxalase I Homo sapiens
