Carbazomycin C is a bacterial metabolite that has been found in Streptomyces and has diverse biological activities. It is active against S. aureus, B. anthracis, B. subtilis, and M. flavus, the fungi T. asteroides and T. mentagrophytes, and P. falciparum. It is also active against a panel of five plant pathogenic fungi. Carbazomycin C is cytotoxic to MCF-7, KB, and NCI H187 cells. It also inhibits 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) activity in RBL-1 cell extracts.
Streptonigrin is a natural product produced by Streptomyces flocculus, has both anti-tumor and anti-bacterial activity. Streptonigrin acts as a pan-PAD inhibitor (IC50s: 48.3±34.2 µM, 26.1±0.3 µM, 0.43±0.03 µM, and 2.5±0.4 µM for PAD1, PAD2, PAD3, and PAD
10'-Desmethoxystreptonigrin is an antibiotic originally isolated from Streptomyces and a derivative of the antibiotic streptonigrin. It is active against a variety of bacteria, including S. aureus, S. faecalis, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and P. vulgaris (MICs = 0.4, 1.6, 3.1, 3.1 and 0.4 μg/ml, respectively). 10'-Desmethoxystreptonigrin is cytotoxic to HCT116 colon and A2780 ovarian cancer cells (IC50s = 0.004 and 0.001 μg/ml, respectively), as well as HCT116 cells resistant to etoposide and teniposide and cisplatin-resistant A2780 cells (IC50s = 0.003, 0.001, and 0.01 μg/ml, respectively). 10'-Desmethoxystreptonigrin is also an inhibitor of p21ras farnesylation (IC50 = 21 nM).
Pyranonigrin A is a fungal metabolite originally isolated from Aspergillus that has antioxidant activity. It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH;) free radicals in a cell-free assay (IC50 = 132.9 μM). Pyranonigrin A (10 μM) suppresses TNF-α-induced expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).
Streptonigrin is an aminoquinone antitumor and antibacterial antibiotic produced by Streptomyces flocculus. Streptonigrin inhibits β-Catenin Tcf signaling and shows cytotoxicity in β-catenin-activated cells. Streptonigrin induces delayed chromosomal instability involving interstitial telomeric sequences in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Note: Streptonigrin from natural resource is (-)-rotation, has CAS#3930-19-6 and is a R-isomer.
