87-11-6CC(=O)Nc1c2sscc-2n(C)c1=OMHMRAFONCSQAIA-UHFFFAOYSA-NThiolutin is a dithiolopyrrolone antibiotic that is 4,5-dihydro[1,2]dithiolo[4,3-b]pyrrole in which the hydrogens at positions 4,5 and 6 have been replaced by methyl, oxo and acetamido groups, respectively. It is a potent inhibitor of RNA polymerases, inhibits the angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and also inhibits JAMM metalloproteases. It has a role as a toxin, an antibacterial agent, an antineoplastic agent, an antifungal agent, an EC 2.7.7.6 (RNA polymerase) inhibitor, a chelator, a protein synthesis inhibitor, an angiogenesis inhibitor, a marine metabolite and a bacterial metabolite. It is a dithiolopyrrolone antibiotic and a member of acetamides. It is functionally related to a holomycin.

DescriptionThiolutin is a natural dithiol that reversibly inhibits bacterial and yeast RNA polymerases (IC50 = 3 μg/ml). Because of this, it can be used for the analysis of mRNA stability. Thiolutin also inhibits endothelial cell adhesion (IC50 induced angiogenesis in mice by inhibiting Hsp27 interactions with cytoskeletal elements.
UsesThiolutin has been used as a polymerase II inhibitor:to study its effects on yeast cells to calculate transcript half-life to study its effects on transcription during germination in budding yeast to study its effects on cell adhesion in zebrafish
UsesThiolutin is an antibiotic isolated from several strains of Streptomyces albus. Thiolutin is a natural dithiol that reversibly inhibits bacterial and yeast RNA polymerases.
UsesThiolutin is an antibiotic first described by Tanner and co-workers in 1950. Resurgent interest in this class of microbial metabolites was stimulated by the discovery of their selective antitumour activity. Thiolutin is a potent inhibitor of bacterial and yeast RNA polymerases, and also inhibits mannan and glucan formation in fungi. Thiolutin suppresses tumour cell-induced angiogenesis in vivo.
