| Definition | Cycloheximide appears as colorless crystals that can be used as a fungicide and as a anticancer drug. It is produced by the bacterium Streptomyces griseus and has a role as a bacterial metabolite, a protein synthesis inhibitor, a neuroprotective agent, an anticoronaviral agent and a ferroptosis inhibitor. It is a member of piperidones, a piperidine antibiotic, a fungicide, a dicarboximide, a secondary alcohol and a cyclic ketone. It is functionally related to a piperidine-2,6-dione. Cycloheximide can cause developmental toxicity. |
