Investigations on the mode of action of gephyronic acid, an inhibitor of eukaryotic protein translation from myxobacteria.

The identification of inhibitors of eukaryotic protein biosynthesis, which are targeting single translation factors, is highly demanded. Here we report on a small molecule inhibitor, gephyronic acid, isolated from the myxobacterium Archangium gephyra that inhibits growth of transformed mammalian cel...
