• 化学的特性

  White to light tan solid. Soluble in ethanol (10 mg/ml), methanol, DMF, DMSO (10 mg/ml), and water (moderate).

• 使用

  Zaragozic acid A is the major metabolite of a class of unusual bicyclic tricarboxylic acids, produced by a number of fungi in the genera Curvularia, Exserohilum, Setosphaeria and others, discovered at Merck and Glaxo in the early 1990s. In nature, zaragozic acid A acts as broad spectrum antifungal but its mode of action as an inhibitor of squalene synthase, involved in sterol biosynthesis, lead to investigation as a cholesterol lowering agent. Zaragozic acid A prepared by BioAustralis is presented as the free acid rather than the tri-sodium salt to avoid stability problems associated with hydrolysis of the salt.

• 定義

  ChEBI: Zaragozic acid A is a polyketide isolated from fungi that is a potent inhibitor of fungal and mammalian squalene synthase. It has a role as an EC 2.5.1.21 (squalene synthase) inhibitor and a fungal metabolite. It is a tricarboxylic acid, an acetate ester, a cyclic ketal, an oxabicycloalkane, a tertiary alcohol and a polyketide.

• 主な応用

  Zaragozic Acid A is a squalene synthetase inhibitor. it targeted squalene synthase and lowered the cholesterol levels in vivo of marmosets.
