Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Fumagillin is a complex sesquiterpene antibiotic that irreversibly inhibits methionine aminopeptidase2 (MetAP2), an enzyme involved in cotranslational processing of nascent proteins and regulation of endothelialcell proliferation. By covalently binding MetAP2, fumagillin suppresses angiogenesis and alters cellular growth and differentiation pathways.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in angiogenesisinhibition research, MetAP2target validation, endothelialcell signalling studies, antiparasitic investigations (e.g. microsporidia), and structureactivity relationship work on fumagillin analogues.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include neurotoxicity, GI upset, hepatotoxicity and bonemarrow suppression at high or prolonged exposure. Handle with potent enzymeinhibitor and cytotoxiccompound precautions.
