Metabolite Identification
Common NameJavanicin
DescriptionJavanicin is a novel metabolite belonging to the chemical class of benzoisochromenes, specifically identified as a HBV capsid assembly inhibitor. Isolated from the endophytic fungus JS169, Javanicin has demonstrated significant biological activity, particularly in the context of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. It functions by inducing proteasome-mediated degradation of the HBV core protein, leading to a reduction in HBV capsid protein levels, with an IC50 of less than 500 nM and a selectivity index greater than 10 (PMID:40603143 ). Furthermore, Javanicin has shown synergistic effects when used in combination with Entecavir, enhancing its efficacy against HBV (PMID:40603143 ). Structural analysis indicates that Javanicin possesses several modifiable moieties, suggesting potential for the development of derivatives (PMID:40603143 ). In addition to its antiviral properties, Javanicin exhibits fungicidal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans, linked to its effects on intracellular carbohydrate and energy metabolic processes (PMID:34834105 ). Overall, Javanicin represents a promising candidate for therapeutic intervention in chronic hepatitis B and fungal infections, warranting further investigation into its mechanisms and potential applications.
