Allosamidin

A natural molecule produced by soil bacteria of the genus Streptomyces, described in the mid-1980s as an inhibitor of chitinases, the enzymes that break down chitin, during a search for new microbial insect growth regulators. This family brings together the active ingredient.

Did you know?For the bacterium that makes it, it is a signal: when chitin is present in the environment, allosamidin is released and boosts chitinase production and the growth of the bacterium itself.
