摘要
A new beta-1,3 glucan synthesis inhibitor, L-687,781 is produced by the cultivation of Dictyochaeta simplex ATCC 20960. Through NMR, mass spectroscopy, and degradation studies the structure of L-687,781 was determined to be 1, a novel member of the papulacandin family of antifungal agents. L-687,781 exhibits potent in vitro antifungal activity as well as anti-Pneumocystis activity in a rat model.
