Background:
Phomopsin A is a cyclic hexapeptide mycotoxin that inhibits β-tubulin.
Phomopsins are a family of mycotoxins produced by the fungus Phomopsis leptostomiformis grows on lupins, which cause lupinosis, a severe liver disease of grazing animals [1][2].
Microtubules are one of the major components of the cytoskeleton that are essential in several cellular functions such as cell division and morphogenesis. α- and β-tubulins polymerize into microtubules.
Phomopsin A is a cyclic hexapeptide mycotoxin that binds β-tubulin in a vinca domain, partly overlapping with the site targeted by vinblastine and other tubulin inhibitors [2][3]. Phomopsin A noncompetitively inhibited the binding of radiolabeled vinblastine to tubulin with IC50 and Ki values of 0.8 μM and 2.8 μM, respectively. Phomopsin A potently inhibited tubulin-dependent GTP hydrolysis and nucleotide exchange on tubulin [2]. Phomopsin A, a vinca domain antimitotic peptide, also inhibited microtubule assembly [3][4]. Phomopsin A inhibited microtubule growth, modulated the dynamics of microtubules, and induced the self-association of tubulin dimers into single-walled rings and spirals [4].
