Description

Gamma-Nonalactone is an organic compound that has been identified in a variety of natural sources, including plants and animals. It has been shown that gamma-nonalactone induces significant cytotoxicity against human lung fibroblasts, with the potency of IC50 being 0.22 μM. Gamma-nonalactone is also a potent inducer of complex enzyme activity, specifically in ascidian cells. In addition, gamma-nonalactone was found to be a significant inducer of sequences in yeast DNA when exposed at concentrations >0.5 mM. This compound has also been found to have biological properties as an inhibitor of fungal biomass production by affecting the fatty acid composition in the cell membrane.
