| | MYRIOCIN Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Myriocin is an amino fatty acid antibiotic derived from certain thermophylic fungi, in this case Mycelia sterilia. It is a potent immunosuppressant having 10- to 100-fold more activity than cyclosporin A. Myriocin is a potent inhibitor of serine palmitoyltransferase (Ki = 0.28 nM), the enzyme that catalyzes the first step of sphingolipid biosynthesis. It disrupts substratum adhesion of melanoma cells. It also suppresses cell proliferation in the murine cytotoxic T cell line CTLL-2 (IC50 = 15 nM) via apoptosis. Myriocin suppresses replication of the hepatitis C virus in a murine model. | | Chemical Properties | White powder | | Uses | Myriocin is an α-amino fatty acid derived from several genera of fungi, notably Myriococcum, Melanconis and Isaria. Myriocin potently inhibits sphingosine biosynthesis by blocking the first enzyme in the pathway, serine palmitoyltransferase. Myriocin induces apoptosis by depleting cellular sphingolipids, inhibits proliferation of IL-2-dependent mouse cytotoxic cells and is a potent immunosuppressant. | | Uses | Myriocin is a atypical amino acid and an antibiotic with potent immunosuppressant activity. Studies suggest that the immunosuppressant activity in the cytotoxic T-cell line CTTL-2 is due to apoptosis
induction. Myriocin very potent inhibitor of serine palmitoyltransferase and thus blocks the synthesis ceramide, a precursor in sphingomyelin and glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. As a result Myriocin i
s a useful biochemical research tool for depleting cells of sphingolipids. | | Uses | Myriocin is an amino fatty acid antibiotic derived from certain thermophylic fungi, in this case Mycelia sterilia.

Myriocin also possesses immunosuppressant activity. | | General Description | A potent immunosuppressant. Displays 10- to 100-fold more potent immunosuppressant activity than cyclosporin A. Potently inhibits serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT; Ki = 280 pM) thereby blocking the synthesis of ceramide. Disrupts substratum adhesion of melanoma cells. Inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in IL-2 dependent murine cytotoxic T lymphocyte cell line CTLL-2. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Product does not compete with ATP. | | References | [1] T FUJITA.
