Catacandins, novel anticandidal antibiotics of bacterial origin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two novel antibiotics, catacandin A and catacandin B, were isolated from the fermentation broth of the bacterium, Lysobacter gummosus, by extraction and adsorption, reverse-phase and gel filtration chromatography. On the basis of their physico-chemical properties, they are acyltetramic acids that are easily distinguishable from others in this class. Catacandin A and catacandin B possess good anticandidal activity.

Docking and Biological Screening of Bezo[A]phenothiazinones as Novel Inhibitors of Bacterial Peptidogloycan Transpeptidase
Rising cases of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a public health concern. Many approved antibiotics target penicillin-binding proteins example peptidoglycan transpeptidase (PTPase). Due to wide pharmacological activity of phenothiazines, new styryl, aryl, alkynyl, and thiophenyl benzo[a]phenothiazines were synthesized and their inhibitory potency against PTPasein silico and Gram-po...

Peptide analogues of Sch 37137 the antifungal antibiotic have been synthesized and evaluated in vitro against Candida sp. Di- and tripeptides containing methionine, leucine, norvaline, lysine, glutamic acid and N3-(trans-epoxysuccinamoyl)-L-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid, (EADP) were obtained. Peptides containing (D)-, and (L)-trans-epoxysuccinamic acid were also prepared. All of the analogues exami...
متن کاملStreptomycetes: Characteristics and Their Antimicrobial Activities
The Streptomycetes are gram positive bacteria with a filamentous form that present in a wide variety of soil including composts, water and plants. The most characteristic of Streptomycetes is the ability to produce secondary metabolites such as antibiotics. They produce over two-thirds of the clinically useful antibiotics of natural origin (e.g., neomycin and chloramphenicol. Another characteri...
متن کاملThe Antimicrobial efficacy of Elaeis guineensis: characterization, in vitro and in vivo studies.
The urgent need to treat multi-drug resistant pathogenic microorganisms in chronically infected patients has given rise to the development of new antimicrobials from natural resources. We have tested Elaeis guineensis Jacq (Arecaceae) methanol extract against a variety of bacterial, fungal and yeast strains associated with infections. Our studies have demonstrated that E. guineensis exhibits ex...
