Bioactive compound to inhibit protein synthesis Actinobolin (Sulfate) [CAS: 18802-17-0]

Date：June 24 2025Web Page No：520087

Actinobolin is a bioactive compound harboring antibiotic activity, which was isolated from Streptomyces.¹⁾ Actinobolin is able to inhibit protein synthesis in both bacteria²⁾ and mammalian cells.^{3, 4)} It was also reported that this compound expressed inhibitory activity to bacteria associated with periodontal diseases⁵⁾ and immunosuppression.⁶⁾
It is also known that Bactobolin which was isolated from Psendonionas has a similar structure of actinobolin.

Application note

Actinobolin inhibited protein synthesis in Escherichia coli, which the inhibitory mechanism was different of other inhibitors such as chloramphenicol and sparsomycin.²⁾
Actinobolin inhibited synthesis of both DNA and protein in mouse adenocarcinoma 755 cells, both in vivo and in cell culture. It was suggested that the compound could compete aminoacyl-tRNA to inhibit protein synthesis.³⁾
Actinobolin expressed inhibitory activity to bacteria associated with periodontal diseases such as Bacteroides melaninogenicus, Fusobacterium fusiforme, Leptotrichia buccalis, and Veillonella parvula.⁵⁾
This compound expressed immunosuppressing activity to experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis (EAMG).⁶⁾
As shown at the table below, the compound had inhibitory activity to protein synthesis in E. coli and mammalian cells.⁴⁾
