Zelkovamycin

CAS: 221197-33-7

Zelkovamycin is a novel antibacterial compound isolated from endophytic microorganisms, specifically Streptomyces sp. Endophytes are bacteria or fungi that reside within plant tissues, forming symbiotic relationships and often producing bioactive metabolites. The mode of action of Zelkovamycin involves the inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis, interfering with the biosynthesis pathways essential for maintaining the structural integrity and function of bacterial cell walls, particularly in Gram-positive strains.
