Cycloheximide is a fungal-derived compound used particularly in molecular biology, microbiology, and cell biology.
Widely used in research to study cellular processes, including apoptosis, autophagy, and the regulation of gene expression. Cycloheximide is often used in cell culture studies to block de novo protein synthesis, allowing researchers to study the stability and turnover of existing proteins. In microbiology research, it selectively inhibits the growth of fungi in culture media, making it a useful tool for isolating and identifying bacteria without interference from fungi.
