Hydantoin is an antimicrobial agent that inhibits the synthesis of proteins. Hydantoin is a member of the group of compounds called nitrogen-containing heterocyclic amides, which are structurally related to hydantoins. Hydantoin has been shown to have antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in vitro and also inhibits caspase-independent cell death induced by hydrogen fluoride. It also has shown locomotor activity in mice with a plate test. The biological properties of hydantoin are determined by intramolecular hydrogen transfer reactions between nitrogen atoms. Hydantoin has been shown to react with human serum, leaving an amide residue with a reaction mechanism similar to that seen for other hydantoins.
