Antibiotics harboring antimalarial activity Aplasmomycin A (Sodium Salt)

Date:September 22 2025Web Page No:520100

Aplasmomycin A was isolated from culture filtrate of Streptomyces griseus.1) This compound has the core macarolide structure with a central boron atom and determined the structure by X-ray crystallographic analysis of its Ag-salt.2) This natural compound inhibited the growth of gram-positive bacterial including mycobacteria and it showed an antimalarial activity in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei.1) It was reported that Aplasmomycin A specifically inhibited the futalosine pathway of menaquinone biosynthesis.3)
