Application Notes

Anisomycin is a phenylmethylenepyrrolidine first isolated from Streptomyces griseolus in 1954 as an antiprotozoan with antifungal activity. Anisomycin is an inhibitor of protein synthesis by binding to the 60S ribosomal subunit. Interestingly, anisomycin has found use for the induction of amnesia in animal models. Anisomycin also induces apoptosis and is a selective signalling agonist, activates mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and is immunomodulatory via its action on T cells.
