The antifungal agents lanomycin and glucolanomycin were isolated from Pycnidiophora dispersa. The compounds were active against species of Candida and dermatophytes but were inactive against Aspergillus fumigatus and Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The compounds inhibited the cytochrome P-450 enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, and are believed, therefore, to have a mode of action similar to the azole and bis-triazole class of antifungal agents.
