Quinolactacin A

CAS: 319917-25-4

Quinolactacin A is a depsipeptide antibiotic, which is a complex natural product derived from microbial sources, specifically fungi or actinobacteria. Its mode of action involves inhibiting bacterial topoisomerases, enzymes essential for DNA replication and cell division. By interacting with these targets, Quinolactacin A disrupts DNA manipulation processes, ultimately leading to cell death in susceptible bacterial strains.
