Common NameDehydrofusaric acid
DescriptionDehydrofusaric acid is a member of the alkylpicolinic acid derivative chemical class. Its chemical structure is characterized by a modified picolinic acid backbone, which contributes to its biological activity. This compound has been shown to disrupt cell wall and membrane integrity, acting as an effective antioomycete and antifungal agent derived from the endophytic fungus Fusarium lactis strain SME13-2 (PMID:39701832 ). Studies have demonstrated that dehydrofusaric acid inhibits the respiration of mycelium and alters cell membrane permeability in phytopathogenic microorganisms, particularly oomycetes, in a concentration and exposure time-dependent manner (PMID:39701832 ). The isolation of dehydrofusaric acid, along with fusaric acid, was achieved through bioactivity-directed fractionation of organic extracts from the fungal culture (PMID:39701832 ). Additionally, prior research has indicated the formation of co-crystal adducts between fusaric acid and dehydrofusaric acid, highlighting potential interactions and structural relationships (PMID:37395452 ). Overall, dehydrofusaric acid's unique chemical properties and its involvement in metabolic pathways underscore its potential for developing new fungicides and anti-oomycete agents (PMID:39701832 ).
