  VT-ME6 is a potent and selective sphingosine kinase 2 inhibitor. VT-ME6, contained a quaternary ammonium group as a warhead and established that a positively charged moiety is necessary for engaging key amino acid residues in the enzyme binding pocket.13,14 This compound is moderately potent (Ki = 8 lM) and displays three-fold selectivity for SphK2 over SphK1. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a ubiquitous, endogenous small molecule that is synthesized by two isoforms of sphingosine kinase (SphK1 and 2) . Intervention of the S1P signaling pathway has attracted significant attention because alteration of S1P levels is linked to several disease states including cancer, fibrosis, and sickle cell disease.
