Abstract
A novel inositol mono-phosphatase inhibitor, L-671,776 (1), was discovered from a culture of the hyphomycete, Memnoniella echinata (ATCC 20928). 1 has a molecular weight of 388 and a molecular formula of C23H32O5. The mode of inhibition is non-competitive, with a Ki of 450 microM. It shows no inhibition of myo-inositol 1,4-bisphosphate 1-phosphatase or myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate 5-phosphatase, although it weakly inhibits myo-inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate 3-kinase (IC50 = 3 mM). It elevates inositol monophosphates in rat parotid slices (EC50 approximately 3 mM), but abolishes agonist effects. It also produces short-lived contraction of guinea pig trachea at 300 microM.
