Abstract

Allosamidin, a novel insect chitinase inhibitor, was isolated from the mycelium of Streptomyces sp.It showed strong inhibitory activity against the chitinases of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, in vitro, and also insecticidal activity by preventing its ecdysis in vivo, Chitin is a polymer of /3-1 ,4 linked iV-acetyl-D-glucosamine, whose natural occurrence is specialized and which is a main component of cuticle in insects.Its turnover is regulated mainly by two enzymes, chitin synthase for its synthesis and chitinase for its degradation, and it plays an important part in ecdysis.Therefore it has been thought that inhibitors of these enzymes should be good leads for

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
