Anisomycin, also known as '''Flagecidin''' ( produced by '' Streptomyces Griseolus '' which inhibits Protein Synthesis . Partial Inhibition of DNA Synthesis occurs at anisomycin Concentration s that effect 95% inhibition of protein synthesis {Link without Title} . Anisomycin can activate Stress-activated Protein Kinase s, MAP Kinase and other Signal Transduction pathways. Anisomycin is inactive against Bacteria . PHARMACOLOGY Anisomycin interferes with protein and DNA synthesis by inhibiting Peptidyl Transferase or the 80S Ribosome system. Anisomycin is also mentioned as a potential Psychiatric Drug , as it may erase "short-range memory" {Link without Title} . Injection of anisomycin into the Hippocampus has been proposed for selective removal of memories {Link without Title} . REFERENCES # 1 Free text (PDF - 990K) # 2 # 3 Free text SEE ALSO |
