Fumonisin B2 is afumonisinmycotoxin produced by the fungiFusarium verticillioides (formerlyFusarium moniliforme) andAspergillus niger.[1]
It is astructural analog offumonisin B3, while it is lacking one hydroxy group compared tofumonisin B1.[2]
Fumonisin B2 is morecytotoxic than fumonisin B1. Fumonisin B2 inhibitssphingosine acyltransferase.
Fumonisin B2 and other fumonisins frequently contaminatemaize and other crops, while recently it has been shown usingLC–MS/MS that FB2 can contaminate coffee beans as well.[3]
