Application

Fusicoccin (Fusicoccin A), a diterpene glucoside phytotoxin, is used to study 14-3-3-dependent processes such as the activation of H+-ATPase in plants and other client proteins with mode III binding motifs. Fusicoccin is an inducer of a catalase inhibitor that leads to oxidative damage in plants.

Other Notes

A diterpene glucoside with numerous physiological effects on plants.

Active small molecules have a high potential for the development into new anti-cancer drugs. Here we analysed the effect of the natural occurring fusicoccanes, Fusicoccin-A (FC), Ophiobolin-A (OPH-A) and Ophiobolin-I (OPH-I) on various tumor cell lines. Both FC and OPH-A

Cyclic diterpenoids are commonly biosynthesized from geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGDP) through the formation of carbon skeletons by specific cyclases and subsequent chemical modifications, such as oxidation, reduction, methylation, and glucosidation. A variety of diterpenoids are produced in higher plants and fungi.
