Ophiobolin A. A natural product inhibitor of calmodulin.
Ophiobolin A, a fungal metabolite and a phytotoxin which can stimulate the net leakage of electrolytes and glucose from maize seedling roots (Tipton, C. L., Paulsen, P. V., and Betts, R. E. (1977) Plant Physiol. 59, 907-910) was found to be a potent inhibitor of calmodulin-activated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. The physiologically less active analogue, 3-anhydro-ophiobolin A, was found ...
متن کاملThe anticancer natural product ophiobolin A induces cytotoxicity by covalent modification of phosphatidylethanolamine
Phenotypic screens allow the identification of small molecules with promising anticancer activity, but the difficulty in characterizing the mechanism of action of these compounds in human cells often undermines their value as drug leads. Here, we used a loss-of-function genetic screen in human haploid KBM7 cells to discover the mechanism of action of the anticancer natural product ophiobolin A ...
متن کاملGambogic acid, a natural product inhibitor of Hsp90.
A high-throughput screening of natural product libraries identified (-)-gambogic acid (1), a component of the exudate of Garcinia harburyi, as a potential Hsp90 inhibitor, in addition to the known Hsp90 inhibitor celastrol (2). Subsequent testing established that 1 inhibited cell proliferation, brought about the degradation of Hsp90 client proteins in cultured cells, and induced the expression ...
متن کاملA natural product-like inhibitor of NEDD8-activating enzyme.
The natural product-like 6,6″-biapigenin has been identified as only the second inhibitor of NEDD8-activating enzyme using virtual screening. This compound was active in enzyme and cell-based assays, with potency in the micromolar range.
متن کاملNatural product-guided discovery of a fungal chitinase inhibitor.
Natural products are often large, synthetically intractable molecules, yet frequently offer surprising inroads into previously unexplored chemical space for enzyme inhibitors. Argifin is a cyclic pentapeptide that was originally isolated as a fungal natural product. It competitively inhibits family 18 chitinases by mimicking the chitooligosaccharide substrate of these enzymes. Interestingly, ar...
