Replaces Prod. #: ALX-350-237

Mycotoxin, structurally similar to fumonisin B₁ (Prod. No. BML-SL220). Found as contaminant mostly in corn silage; was detected recently for the first time in the industrially important Aspergillus niger. Induces cancer. Inducer of apoptosis. Inhibits sphinganine N-acyltransferase (ceramide synthase) at IC₅₀ = 0.1µM. Inhibits de novo sphingolipid biosynthesis.
