Biochem/physiol Actions

Intronistat B is a potent inhibitor of the self-splicing group IIB intron, a mitochondrial RNA tertiary structure necessary for respiration in fungi, yeast and plants, but not found in vertebrates. Intronistat B was found to have antifungal activity comparable to that of amphotericin B in inhibiting growth of the Candida parapsilosis. It did not inhibit spliceosomal processing, group I intron splicing or splicing of group II introns from subclasses other than subclass IIB and was not toxic to human cells.

Specific RNA structures control numerous metabolic processes that impact human health, and yet efforts to target RNA structures de novo have been limited. In eukaryotes, the self-splicing group II intron is a mitochondrial RNA tertiary structure that is absent in
