Biochem/physiol Actions

Enterocin is a bacteriostatic polyketide antibiotic unrelated to the polypeptide enterocin bacteriocins. It has broad-spectrum antibiotic activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Enterocin has also been shown to have inhibitory activity against β-amyloid protein (Aβ1-42) fibrillation and moderate cytotoxicity against HeLa and HepG2 cancer cell lines.

The type II polyketide synthase (PKS) natural product enterocin (1) was isolated from a mangrove-derived novel species Streptomyces qinglanensis 172205 guided by genome sequence, and its putative biosynthetic gene cluster was revealed. Its natural analogues 5-deoxyenterocin (2) and wailupemycin A-C
