In higher (multicellular) organisms, many processes are required for coordinating individual cells to act as parts of the whole. Among these we may count attraction of spermatozoides by ovum, environment sensing in general, cellular response to hormones and neuro transmitters, initiating and terminating cells multiplication, or imposing apoptosis on unneeded cells during ontogenesis.

Usually, Signal-Transduction would begin with binding of the singnal-molecule to a receptor on the cell-membrane, altering its configuration and thus starting a chain of reactions within the cell. These reactions may include (de)acetylations, (de)/phosphorilations on the participating molcules.

The Signal Transduction related reagents may by further classified as

  • Ca++-ATPase inhibitors, such as Artemisinin, Cyclopiazonic acid, Thapsigargin, Paxilline
  • SERCA Ca2+-ATPase stimulator/ activator, such as Ochratoxin A
  • Hedgehog signalling inhibitors: Cyclopamine

RTECS#:  N.A.

Description

Cercosporin is a light-induced polyketide phytotoxin reported to produce singlet oxygen when photoactivated. Acts as a potent and specific PKC inhibitor. Competes for the phorbol binding site. Anticancer compound. Also displays antiproliferative; antiparasitic and antimicrobial properties. Cercosporin is a photosensitizing toxin produced by fungal plant pathogens in the genus Cercospora. Cercosporin produces singlet oxygen and superoxide when irradiated by light, and damages plants by causing a peroxidation of the membrane lipids. This membrane damage leads to a loss in membrane fluidity, leakage of nutrients, and rapid death of the plant cell. Cercosporin is toxic to mice and bacteria in addition to plants, and attempts to select plant cells in vitro for resistance to cercosporin have not been successful. A large number of fungal species, however, are resistant to cercosporin. Carotenoids and the fungal cell wall appear to play a critical role in the resistance of fungi to cercosporin.
