Althiomycin
Catalog No. A47218

Althiomycin is a thiazole antibiotic derived from polyketide synthesis, primarily targeting Gram-positive bacteria. It exhibits potent antibacterial activity against strains such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Streptococcus pyogenes, with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 25 μg/mL, 25 μg/mL, and 3.1 μg/mL, respectively. Additionally, Althiomycin inhibits protein synthesis in Escherichia coli at concentrations of 1 and 10 μg/mL, though it does not affect protein synthesis in isolated rabbit reticulocytes at 100 μg/mL. This compound is useful in antibiotic research and studies related to bacterial resistance mechanisms.
