Amicoumacin B is an amicoumacin that has been found in N. jinanensis and has quorum-sensing inhibitory activity.1 It is active against C. violaceum (MIC = 250 μg/ml) and reduces the expression of the C. violaceum operons vioA, vioB, vioD, and vioE, but increases the expression of vioC, indicating quorum sensing inhibitory activity.2 Amicoumacin B increases the expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) in MG-63 cells.1,3
