Myxothiazol BiologicalActivity
| Description | Myxothiazol, an antifungal antibiotic, is a mitochondrial electron transport chain complex III (bc1 complex) inhibitor. Myxothiazol inhibits the growth of many yeasts and fungi at concentrations between 0.01 and 3 μg/ml[1][2]. |

| In Vitro | Myxothiazol inhibits the growth of many yeasts and fungi at concentrations between 0.01 and 3 μg/ml[2]. Myxothiazol binds to the ubiquinol oxidation site Qo of complex III and blocks electron transfer from ubiquinol to cytochrome b and thus inhibits complex III activity[3]. |
| In Vivo | Myxothiazol (i.p.; 0.56 mg/kg; daily for 4 days)-induced complex III inhibition can be induced in mice for four days in a row without overt hepatotoxicity or lethality[3]. Animal Model: C57Bl/J6 mice[3] Dosage: 0.56 mg/kg Administration: I.p.; 24 hours intervals for at most 4 times Result: A reversible complex III activity decrease to 50% of control value occurred at 2 h post-injection. At 74 h only minor histological changes in the liver were found, supercomplex formation was preserved and no significant changes in the expression of genes indicating hepatotoxicity or inflammation were found. |
