AS-2077715 is an antifungal agent that shows inhibitory activity against the Trichophyton species. AS-2077715 can be obtained from the fermentation broth of Capnodium sp. 339855. AS-2077715 can be used to study fungal infections[1].

AS-2077715 is a fungal metabolite and an inhibitor of fungal mitochondrial complex III (cytochrome bc1; IC50 = 80 ng/ml for T. mentagrophytes complex III).1 It is selective for fungal over mammalian complex III (IC50s = 480 and 860 ng/ml for murine EL-4 cell and human Jurkat cell complex III, respectively). AS-2077715 inhibits ATP production in (IC50 = 0.33 μg/ml) and is fungicidal against T. mentagrophytes when used at concentrations of 1 and 10 μg/ml. In vivo, AS-2077715 (10 and 20 mg/kg) reduces the number of foot pad skin colony forming units (CFUs) in a guinea pig model of T. mentagrophytes infection.2
