Product Overview
Description:
Aureothin is a naturally occurring polyketide metabolite characterized by a distinctive nitroaryl substitution that displays prominent antineoplastic, antifungal, and insecticidal properties. This highly functionalized molecule acts as a non-competitive respiratory inhibitor, directly disrupting cellular bioenergetics by targeting the mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex across diverse mammalian, fungal, and bacterial structures.
