Abstract

A new NADH-fumarate reductase inhibitor, paecilaminol, was isolated from the cultured broth of a fungus Paecilomyces sp. FKI-0550. It is an amino alcohol compound, the structure being established as 2-amino-14,16-dimethyl-3-octadecanol. Paecilaminol exhibited an IC50 value of 5.1 microM against Ascaris suum NADH-fumarate reductase.
