A new cyclic depsipeptide, rakicidin F (1), along with the known compound rakicidin C (2), was isolated from the fermentation broth of the marine sponge-derived actinomycete strain Streptomyces sp. GKU 220. Their structures were elucidated by interpreting the HRFABMS and NMR spectroscopic data. Rakicidin F (1) showed growth inhibitory activity against bacteria.The Journal of Antibiotics advance online publication, 2 August 2017; doi:10.1038/ja.2017.92.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
