Myriocin
Catalog No. A46311

Myriocin is a potent serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) inhibitor derived from various fungal species such as Myriococcum albomyces, Isaria sinclairi, and Mycelia sterilia. By inhibiting SPT, Myriocin plays a crucial role in the disruption of de novo sphingolipid synthesis. It has demonstrated significant antiviral activity, effectively suppressing the replication of both the subgenomic HCV-1b replicon and the JFH-1 strain of genotype 2a infectious HCV, with an IC50 of 3.5 μg/mL. This compound is valuable for research into sphingolipid metabolism and hepatitis C virus infection mechanisms.
