Acivicin is an L-alpha-amino acid that is L-alanine in which the methyl group is replaced by a (5S)-3-chloro-4,5-dihydro-1,2-oxazol-5-yl group. A glutamine analogue antimetabolite, it interferes with glutamate metabolism and several glutamate-dependent synthetic enzymes. It is obtained as a fermentation product of Streptomyces sviceus bacteria. It has a role as a glutamine antagonist, a metabolite, an antimicrobial agent, an antimetabolite, an antineoplastic agent, an antileishmanial agent and an EC 2.3.2.2 (gamma-glutamyltransferase) inhibitor. It is an organochlorine compound, a member of isoxazoles and a non-proteinogenic L-alpha-amino acid.
