The Nematicide Tioxazafen Disrupts Proteasome Function via Cytochrome P450 Bioactivation
2026-07-16
Abstract excerpt
Tioxazafen is an effective nematicide whose commercialization was halted because handlers reportedly developed rashes after working with seeds coated with a tioxazafen-laced cocktail. Here, we show that tioxazafen is bioactivated into toxic products by nematode and human cytochrome P450s. Through systematic analyses, we found that bioactivated tioxazafen disrupts proteasome function, leading to the accumulation of...
