Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of novel nikkomycin analogs: inhibitors of the fungal cell wall biosynthesis enzyme chitin synthase

Nucleic Acids Symp Ser. 1999:(42):13-4. doi: 10.1093/nass/42.1.13.

Abstract

A series of novel nikkomycin analogs, which inhibited chitin synthase, the fungal cell wall biosynthesis enzyme, has been synthesized and evaluated their inhibitory activities.
