STUDIES ON LIPOXYGENASE INHIBITORS I. MY3-469 (3-METHOXYTROPOLONE), A POTENT AND SELECTIVE INHIBITOR OF 12-LIPOXYGENASE, PRODUCED BY STREPTOVERTICILLIUM HADANONENSE KY11449

Streptoverticillium hadanonense KY11449 was found to produce a 12-lipoxygenase inhibitor MY3-469. The compound was purified by chromatography on Diaion HP-10, charcoal, Sephadex LH-20 and crystallization. The chemical structure of MY3-469 was determined to be 3-methoxytropolone on the basis of its p...

Summary:Streptoverticillium hadanonense KY11449 was found to produce a 12-lipoxygenase inhibitor MY3-469. The compound was purified by chromatography on Diaion HP-10, charcoal, Sephadex LH-20 and crystallization. The chemical structure of MY3-469 was determined to be 3-methoxytropolone on the basis of its physico-chemical properties. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of MY3-469 against bovine platelet 12-lipoxygenase was 1.8×10-6 M. The compound did not inhibit bovine platelet cyclooxygenase at 10-3 M and showed weak inhibition (IC50 2.8×10-4) against 5-lipoxygenase of rat basophilic leukemia cells. The results indicate that MY3-469 is a potent and selective inhibitor of 12-lipoxygenase.
