CHEBI:65459 ·resolve ·ANTIFUNGAL ·EXACT SEEDED

A carbobicyclic compound that is 4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydronaphthalen-1(4H)-one substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 2, 5 and 8, a (2Z)-3-hydroxyprop-2-enoyl group at position 4, methyl groups at positions 4 and 7 and a 2R-octan-2-yl group at position 3 (the 4S,4aR,5S,7R,8R,8aS stereoisomer). It is isolated from the fermentation extracts of Sporormiella australis and exhibits antifungal activity by interfering with the fungal lipid metabolism. — ChEBI

Mechanism summary

Mode of action: VIRAL_INTEGRASE_INHIBITION microbial target — Assigned from ChEBI role CHEBI:67268 (HIV-1 integrase inhibitor). ChEBI asserts the role on the compound, but this mechanism belongs to an anti-viral activity while the record is filed as ANTIFUNGAL. Either the compound has both activities, or the filing is wrong — the priority table has put azole antifungals under ANTIBACTERIAL before now. A curator should decide which. The role names a target specific to the microbe or virus — see mode_of_action_target_scope. Not a curator's mechanistic review.
