Bacillosporin C
Application Notes
Bacillosporin C is a dimeric oxaphenalenone antibiotic isolated from Talaromyces bacillosporus by researchers at Chiba University in 1980. The strucure of bacillosporin C was formally published by Lin and co-workers in 2007. Bacillosporin C is a member of the oxaphenalenone class as reviewed in 2013. Bacillosporins have antibiotic and antitumor activities and inhibit acetylcholinesterase.
