Other Product Data

Malformin C is a bicyclic pentapeptide containing L-leucine, D-isoleucine, L-valine, and two D-cysteines coupled with a disulfide-bond bridge. Malformins A1 and C, originally isolated from the culture broth of Aspergillus niger FKI-2342, were found to abrogate the bleomycin-induced G2 arrest in Jurkat cells with IC50 values of 480nM and 0.9nM, respectively. Malformins may be promising candidates as anti-cancer agents.

Description
  • Peptide antibiotic [1].
  • Induces root curvature and malformation in plants [1].
  • Antibacterial [1, 2], antimalarial and antitrypanosomal [4].
  • Disrupts the cell cycle at the G2 checkpoint of cancer cells, leading to sensitization of the cancer cells to anti-cancer reagents [3].
