Terrecyclic acid is a tricyclic sesquiterpene antibiotic produced by Aspergillus terreus, first reported by researchers at the Universities of Osaka and Tokyo in 1982. Terrecyclic acid A had a wide...
Leucinostatin A is the major component of an atypical nonapeptide complex produced by Paecilomyces lilacinus, first reported in 1973. Leucinostatins display broad bioactivity against Gram-positive...
Cytochalasin C is one of a family of potent mycotoxins produced by a range of fungi. All members of the class exhibit profound effects on cytoskeletal proteins, resulting in pronounced morphogenic...
Chrysomycin A is the major analogue in a complex of C-glycoside antitumor actives isolated from Streptomyces. Chrysomycin A, with a vinyl group in the 8-position, is the most potent analogue of the...
Aphidicolin is a tetracyclic diterpene antibiotic isolated from fungi, notably Cephalosporium, Nigrospora, Harziella and Phoma. Aphidicolin has antibiotic, antiviral and antimitotic properties,...
Cytochalasin D is the most studied of the cytochalasins. Like most of the members of this mycotoxin class, cytochalasin D exhibits potent inhibition of actin filament function leading to cell death...
Sulbactam Sodium is an irreversible inhibitor of several bacterial penicillinases and cephalosporinases. In the presence of low concentrations of sulbactam, ampicillin and other β-lactams readily...
Bactenecin is a cyclic, 12 amino acid antimicrobial peptide (AMP) with antibacterial activity against Gram-negative and some Gram-positive bacteria. Mechanism of ActionBactenecin inhibits protein...
Alizarin (1,2-dihydroxyanthraquinone) is a red dye wilth mild antibacterial activity. Alizarin has been found to inhibit biofilm formation by three Staphylococcus aureus strains and a Staphylococcus...
Lincomycin is a lincosamide first isolated from Streptomyces licolnensis by researchers at Upjohn in 1962. This class of antibacterial contains a rare amino acid (4-propyl-N-methylprolin) coupled to...
Nigericin is a polyether antibiotic produced by Streptomyces, notably S. hygroscopicus, isolated in the 1950s. Its complex structure was finally elucidated in 1968. Although Nigericin can be isolated...
Narasin (4-methylsalinomycin) is a carboxylic polyether antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces aureofaciens in 1978. Although Narasin is a derivative of Salinomycin, the metabolites are produced by...
