How to use

In Vitro:

Tunicamycins are nucleoside natural products isolated from the fermentation broths of Streptomyces lysosuperficus in 1971 and exhibit a variety of biological properties including antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antitumor activities. Tunicamycins strongly inhibit UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc): polyprenol phosphate translocase, the enzyme responsible for the first N-acetylglucosamination of the N-linked glycopeptide in endothelial reticulum (ER).
