Toxicity Profile
Route of ExposureOral, dermal, inhalation, and parenteral (contaminated drugs). (7)
Mechanism of ToxicityLuteoskyrin is hepatotoxic. It is thought that this is a result of its metabolic reduction to the semiquinone radical catalyzed by NADPH-dependent cytochrome reductases in the liver, leading to the generation of active oxygen species in redox systems. This causes the induction of lipid peroxidation, hepatocellular membrane damage, and elevation of serum transaminase activities, resultin in liver injuries. Luteoskyrin is also hepatocarcinogenic, possibly a result of its ability to induce DNA fragmentation. It is able to bind to DNA, forming chelate-complexes with nucleic acids and select metal ions. Luteoskyrin inhibits the replication, transcription and repair of DNA, which is at least partially because it inhibits RNA polymerase and ribonuclease H. (1, 2, 4, 5, 6)
MetabolismLuteoskyrin accumulates selectively in the liver, with minor distribution to the serum and kidneys. In the liver it is reduced to its semiquinone radical by NADPH-dependent cytochrome reductases. (4, 5)
Toxicity ValuesNot Available
Lethal Dose145 mg/kg subcutaneously and 221 mg/kg orally in mice. (3)
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)3, not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans. (8)
Uses/SourcesLuteoskyrin is a mycotoxin produced by the fungus Penicillium islandicum. It is known to be a storage mold contaminant of rice. (3)
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
Health EffectsLuteoskyrin is hepatotoxic and hepatocarcinogenic, causing hepatic disorders such as liver cirrhosis and liver tumors. (3, 4)

Targets

General Function:
Zinc ion binding
Specific Function:
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Largest and catalytic core component of RNA polymerase I which synthesizes ribosomal RNA precursors. Forms the polymerase active center together with the second largest subunit. A single stranded DNA template strand of the promoter is positioned within the central active site cleft of Pol I. A bridging helix emanates from RPA1 and crosses the cleft near the catalytic site and is thought to promote translocation of Pol I by acting as a ratchet that moves the RNA-DNA hybrid through the active site by switching from straight to bent conformations at each step of nucleotide addition (By similarity).

General Function:
Ubiquitin protein ligase binding
Specific Function:
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Largest and catalytic component of RNA polymerase II which synthesizes mRNA precursors and many functional non-coding RNAs. Forms the polymerase active center together with the second largest subunit. Pol II is the central component of the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. It is composed of mobile elements that move relative to each other. RPB1 is part of the core element with the central large cleft, the clamp element that moves to open and close the cleft and the jaws that are thought to grab the incoming DNA template. At the start of transcription, a single-stranded DNA template strand of the promoter is positioned within the central active site cleft of Pol II. A bridging helix emanates from RPB1 and crosses the cleft near the catalytic site and is thought to promote translocation of Pol II by acting as a ratchet that moves the RNA-DNA hybrid through the active site by switching from straight to bent conformations at each step of nucleotide addition. During transcription elongation, Pol II moves on the template as the transcript elongates. Elongation is influenced by the phosphorylation status of the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Pol II largest subunit (RPB1), which serves as a platform for assembly of factors that regulate transcription initiation, elongation, termination and mRNA processing. Acts as an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase when associated with small delta antigen of Hepatitis delta virus, acting both as a replicate and transcriptase for the viral RNA circular genome.

General Function:
Translation initiation factor binding
Specific Function:
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Component of RNA polymerase II which synthesizes mRNA precursors and many functional non-coding RNAs. Pol II is the central component of the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. It is composed of mobile elements that move relative to each other. RPB4 is part of a subcomplex with RPB7 that binds to a pocket formed by RPB1, RPB2 and RPB6 at the base of the clamp element. The RBP4-RPB7 subcomplex seems to lock the clamp via RPB7 in the closed conformation thus preventing double-stranded DNA to enter the active site cleft. The RPB4-RPB7 subcomplex binds single-stranded DNA and RNA (By similarity).
