Tenuazonic acid is a putative nonhost-selective mycotoxin isolated from Alternaria alternate. Tenuazonic acid blocks electron transport beyond primary quinone acceptor (QA) by interacting with D1 protein and it is a broad-spectrum and effective photosyste
Altertoxin II 是 Alternaria alternate 霉菌的一种代谢产物,且具有致突变性。无论在有或无代谢活化的条件下,Altertoxin II 对鼠伤寒沙门氏菌 TA98、TA100 和 TA1537 都展现出致突变性。Altertoxin II 可用于研究真菌毒素的致突变机制。
