Descrizione

(+)-Usnic acid is a naturally occurring dibenzofuran derivative, which is isolated from the lichen Usnea dasypoga. It functions as a secondary metabolite produced by lichens. The mode of action of (+)-Usnic acid is primarily its ability to uncouple oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria, which disrupts the proton gradient and ATP production, leading to antimicrobial and antifungal effects.
