Metabolic products of microorganisms. 181. Chitin synthase from fungi, a test model for substances with insecticidal properties

Abstract

Chitin synthase from Coprinus cinereus (Schaeff. ex Fr.) S. F. Gray (= C. lagopus sensu Buller) was used as a model for chitin synthase from insects. The effect of dimilin (difluorobenzuron), captan (trichloromethylsulfonyl fungicide), kitazin P (organophosphorus ester fungicide) and parathion (organophosphorus insecticide) on the fungal enzyme was compared with the effect of nikkomycin (nucleosidepeptide antibiotic).
