چکیده

A new chitinase inhibitor, named argifin, was isolated from the cultured broth of a fungal strain FTD-0668. The strain was identified as Gliocladium sp. from morphological characteristics. The IC50 value of argifin against Lucilia cuprina chitinase was 3.7 microM. Argifin arrested the moult of cockroach larvae upon injection into the ventral abdominal part.

Argifin, a new chitinase inhibitor, produced by Gliocladium sp. FTD-0668. II. Isolation, physico-chemical properties, and structure elucidation.

A new chitinase inhibitor, named argifin, was isolated from the cultured broth of a fungal strain Gliocladium sp. FTD-0668. Argifin was purified from the cultured mycelium by the combination of cation exchange, anion exchange, adsorption, and gel filtration chromatographic methods. The structure of argifin was elucidated as cyclo(N(omega)-(N-methylcarbamoyl)-L-arginyl-N-methyl-L-phenylalan yl-b...

An efficient synthesis of argifin: a natural product chitinase inhibitor with chemotherapeutic potential.

The first synthesis of the cyclopentapeptide family 18 chitinase inhibitor argifin has been achieved by a combination of solid phase and solution chemistry. Synthetic argifin is a nanomolar inhibitor of chitinase B1 from Aspergillus fumigatus and the high-resolution X-ray structure of the synthesized material in complex with the same enzyme is identical to that previously obtained for the natur...

Deacetylravidomycin M, a new inhibitor of IL-4 signal transduction, produced by Streptomyces sp. WK-6326. I. Taxonomy, fermentation, isolation and biological activities.

Streptomyces sp. WK-6326, a soil isolate, was found to produce an inhibitor of interleukin (IL)-4 signal transduction. Two structurally related compounds, a novel one designated deacetylravidomycin M and the known deacetylravidomycin, were isolated from the culture broth by solvent extraction, silica gel column chromatography and HPLC. Deacetylravidomycin M inhibited IL-4-induced CD23 expressio...
