enniatin A Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Beschreibung
Enniatins are cyclohexadepsipeptides commonly isolated from fungi that are known to have antibiotic properties and to induce apoptosis in several cancer lines. Many function as ionophores, forming pores in cellular membranes to allow selective ion transport. Enniatin A is one of four major analogs in the enniatin complex . It has been shown to moderately inhibit acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltranferase activity in rat liver microsomes with an IC
50 value of 22 μM. Enniatin A also demonstrates anthelmintic properties against
N. brasiliensis,
T. spiralis, and
H. spumosa.
Verwenden
Enniatins are a family of depsipeptide ionophores, produced by several Fusarium species. More recently, the effects of the enniatins on acyl-CoA cholesterol transferase, transporters and the selectivity of their antitumour action have received more focus. Enniatin A is one of four major analogues of the enniatin complex and has not previously been available for investigation.
Definition
ChEBI: An enniatin obtained from formal cyclocondensation of three N-[(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoyl]-N-methyl-L-isoleucine units.
