ficellomycin Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses Ficellomycin is a nitrogen-containing bicyclic antibiotic with strong activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including multidrug-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Ficellomycin works by inducing the formation of defective 34S DNA fragments, which interfere with the semi-conservative DNA replication process. These fragments lack the ability to integrate into larger DNA segments and eventually form a complete bacterial chromosome. Ficellomycin can be used in research for various bacterial diseases[1].
Definition ChEBI: Ficellomycin is a dipeptide antibiotic containing an azabicyclohexane ring system that exhibits potent in vitro activity against Penicillium oxalicum and Staphylococcus aureus. It inhibits semi-conservative DNA replication by causing accumulation of 34S DNA species. It has a role as an antibacterial agent, a DNA synthesis inhibitor and a bacterial metabolite. It is a dipeptide, a member of pyrrolidines, a member of aziridines and an alkaloid. It contains a guanidino group and a L-valine.
