• Beschreibung: Fumagillol is a microbial metabolite, which is derived from the fungus *Aspergillus fumigatus*. It exhibits its mode of action primarily through the inhibition of the enzyme methionine aminopeptidase 2 (MetAP2). This inhibition leads to the disruption of angiogenesis, the process by which new blood vessels form, a mechanism that is particularly significant in cancer therapy. Additionally, Fumagillol has demonstrated antimicrobial properties, adding to its potential applications in controlling infections.
