Tautomycin from Streptomyces spiroverticillatus may be used to study its potential as an anti-fungal and anticancer agent. Tautomycin may be used as a potent and specific protein phosphatase inhibitor.
Other Notes
Potent and specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A[1]
Tautomycin inhibited the catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase-1 (Kiapp = 0.16 nM) more potently than protein phosphatase 2A (Kiapp = 0.4 nM), and the native forms of these enzymes in mammalian, protozoan and plant extracts were inhibited in a similar
Herein we describe the further improvement of our in-house developed firefly bioluminescence assay system for the determination of inhibition of protein phosphatase (PP). The advantage with the new system is higher sensitivity as well as being time and sample efficient.
The biosynthetic gene cluster for tautomycin (TTM), a potent protein phosphatase (PP) inhibitor has recently been characterized. Inactivation of ttmM, which encodes a putative C3' hydroxylase, afforded mutant SB6005 which accumulated three new 3'-deshydroxy TTM analogs, supporting the function of

The potential of tautomycin to control oilseed rape stem rot was investigated in this paper. Tautomycin produced by Streptomyces spiroverticillatus strongly inhibited Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, which causes oilseed rape stem rot. Tautomycin showed great inhibition of the mycelial growth of S.

Tautomycin (TTM) is a highly potent and specific protein phosphatase inhibitor isolated from Streptomyces spiroverticillatus. The biological activity of TTM makes it an important lead for drug discovery, whereas its spiroketal-containing polyketide chain and rare dialkylmaleic anhydride moiety draw attention
