General description

Chemical structure: peptidyl nucleoside

Application

Nikkomycin Z is used as a selective competitive inhibitor of chitin synthetase 3 in studies on fungal cell wall development. It is a potential treatment for human Encephalitozoon hellem, a microsporidian species and is used to study the changes of chitin and β--glucan under Nikkomycin Z exposure.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nikkomycin Z inhibits chitin synthase from converting UDP-GlcNAc into cell wall chitin due to its structural resemblance to UDP-N-acetylglucosamine.

Other Notes

Since 1985 microsporidia have been recognized as a cause of emerging infections in humans, mainly in immunocompromised human immunodeficiency virus-positive subjects. As chitin is a basic component of the microsporidian infective stage, the spore, we evaluated in vitro the susceptibility
