Tunicamycin 14:1 is a mixture of tunicamycin structural isomers that contain a 14-carbon N-acyl chain with variable branching patterns. The N-acyl chain incorporated into tunicamycins, like tunicamycin 14:1, is derived from the same pool of cellular branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) in Streptomyces and directly impacts the biological activity of each individual tunicamycin variant.1,2,3Purified tunicamycin 14:1 with the iso branching configuration inhibits bacterial phospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide transferase (MraY) with an IC50 value of 0.31 μM.2

Tunicamycin 17:1 is a mixture of tunicamycin structural isomers that contain a 17-carbon N-acyl chain with variable branching patterns. The N-acyl chain incorporated into tunicamycins, like tunicamycin 17:1, is derived from the same pool of cellular branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) inStreptomycesand directly impacts the biological activity of each individual tunicamycin variant.1,2,3Purified tunicamycin 17:1 withisooranteisobranching configurations inhibits bacterial phospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide transferase (MraY) with IC50values of 0.12 and 0.9 μM, respectively.2 1.Price, N.P.J., Jackson, M.A., Hartman, T.M., et al.Branched chain lipid metabolism as a determinant of the N-Acyl variation of Streptomyces natural productsACS Chem.

TunR2 is an antibiotic and derivative of tunicamycin .1It is active againstB. subtilis(MIC = 0.3 μg ml) and increases the efficacy of the β-lactam antibiotics oxacillin , methicillin , and penicillin G againstB. subtiliswhen used at a concentration of 0.4 μg ml. Unlike tunicamycin, TunR2 is non-toxic toS. cerevisiae(MIC = >10 μg ml) and does not inhibit glycosylation in a protein N-glycosylation assay. TunR2 also has reduced antiproliferative activity against MDA-MB-231 and CHO cells compared with tunicamycin. 1.Price, N.P., Hartman, T.M., Li, J., et al.Modified tunicamycins with reduced eukaryotic toxicity that enhance the antibacterial activity of β-lactamsJ.

KUS121 is a valosin-containing protein (VCP) modulator that inhibits VCP ATPase activity (IC50= 330 nM).1It inhibits cell death, ATP depletion, and upregulation of C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP) induced by tunicamycin, an inducer of ER stress, in HeLa cells when used at concentrations of 20, 50, and 50 μM, respectively. KUS121 (100 μM) inhibits ATP depletion and cell death induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in rat primary cortical neurons in anin vitromodel of cerebral ischemia.2It reduces infarction volume and increases the latency to fall in an accelerating rotarod test in a mouse model of focal cerebral ischemia induced by transient distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) when administered at a dose of 100 mg/kg immediately following occlusion and again at 50 mg/kg following reperfusion. KUS121 (50 mg/kg) inhibits thinning of the retinal outer nuclear layer and preserves visual function in an rd10 mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa.1 1.Ikeda, H.O., Sasaoka, N., Koike, M., et al.Novel VCP modulators mitigate major pathologies of rd10, a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosaSci.

TunR1 (5 μg ml) is cytotoxic to MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells and non-cancerous CHO cells.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, caused by accumulation of misfolded proteins and a disruption of calcium homeostasis, has been linked to several neuronal diseases including, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and prion diseases. A screen for protective activity against ER stress-dependent cell death identified termitomycamides, extracts from the fruiting bodies of T. titanicus, a notably large edible mushroom that is cultivated symbiotically in the nests of termites Termitomycamide B is a fatty acid isolated from T. titanicus that at a dose of 0.1 μg/ml protects against ER stress-dependent cell death in Neuro2a cells induced by tunicamycin.
