| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Fosmidomycin sodium salt hydrate has been used as an inhibitor of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase in a study to determine monotropin carvacrol biosynthesis in Satureja khuzistanica plant. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Propylphosphonic acid in which one of the hydrogens at position 3 is substituted by a formyl(hydroxy)amino group. An antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces lavendulae, it specifically inhibits DXP reductoisomerase (EC 1.1.1.267), a key enzyme i
the non-mevalonate pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Fosmidomycin is an inhibitor of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR) (MEP synthase): an antimalarial compound. 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR) is an enzyme involved in the first step in the nonmevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis in Gram-negative, Gram-positive bacteria, plants, and the parasite causing the most virulent form of malaria, Plasmodium falciparum (Mammals produce isoprenoids via the mevalonate pathway). |
