| 产品描述 | Actinonin is a peptidomimetic antibiotic produced by Actinomyces that inhibits aminopeptidases. It inhibits the following matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs): MMP-1 (Ki = 300 nM), MMP-3 (Ki = 1,700 nM), MMP-8 (Ki = 130 nM), and MMP-9 (Ki = 330 nM).[1] Actinonin acts as an herbicide by targeting plastid peptide deformylase, an enzyme required for N-terminal processing of plastid-encoded proteins.[2] Actinonin has also been identified as an effective inhibitor of human meprin α (Ki = 20 nM), a zinc endopeptidase that cleaves matrix proteins.[3] More recently actinonin has been shown to inhibit tumor cell invasion and matrix degradation and to induce apoptosis in animal models by targeting human mitochondrial peptide deformylase.[4] Reference:
