2.5.1.59 1-[2-[(Z)-[[4-(8-chloro-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10-yl)piperazin-1-yl]imino]methyl]phenoxy]-N,N-dimethylmethanamine i.e L-269289, selective chemical inhibition of GGTase I by L-269289 potentiates echinocandin activity and renders echinocandin-resistant Candida albicans responsive to treatment in vitro and in animal models for disseminated infection Candida albicans
2.5.1.59 L-269289 inhibitor L-269289 and echinocandins act in a synergistic manner for the treatment of Candida parapilosis Candida parapsilosis
2.5.1.59 L-269289 inhibitor L-269289 and echinocandins act in a synergistic manner for the treatment of Candida tropicalis Candida tropicalis
2.5.1.59 L-269289 inhibitor L-269289 is active on its own to kill Candida glabrata, and its fungicidal activity is enhanced when combined with caspofungin Nakaseomyces glabratus

General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
2.5.1.59 physiological function deleting beta-subunit CDC43 of geranylgeranyltransferase type I confers hypersensitivity to echinocandins. The membrane localization of Rho is disrupted in the CDC43 mutant, resulting in decreased amounts of glucans in the cell wall, thereby exacerbating the cell wall stress upon caspofungin addition Candida albicans
2.5.1.59 physiological function deletion of CDC43 is lethal in Candida glabrata Nakaseomyces glabratus
