Anisomycin is a pyrrolidine antibiotic, that acts as an anti-fungal antibiotic which inhibits Protein Synthesis. Anisomycin also activates p54, MAP Kinases and Stress-Activated Protein Kinases.
Anisomycin is used in Martin-Lewis Medium to inhibit C. albicans and aid in identification of N. gonorrhoeae. Finally, Anisomycin or Flagecidin is also anti-protozoal agent.
