Screening for antimetabolites in edible mushrooms showed that the hot water extract of fruiting bodies of Cortinarius claricolor var. tenuipes strongly inhibited the growth of Bacillus subtilis B-50 in a chemically defined minimal medium. 2(S)-Aminohex-5-ynoic acid was isolated as an active compound.
