Capricostatin A
Capricostatin A is a glycosylated heteromeric depsipeptide and Antibacterial agent. Capricostatin A is present in the fungus Austroacremonium gemini MST-FP2131. Capricostatin A inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, including Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, and MRSA. Capricostatin A exhibits no antifungal activity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae and no cytotoxicity against mammalian cells. Capricostatin A can be used in the research of bacterial infections caused by Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus.

Biological Activity
|
Fungal Metabolite |
Capricostatin A inhibits the growth of Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Methicillin (HY-121544)-resistant S. aureus with MIC values of 1.6 μg mL−1, 3.1 μg mL−1, and 6.3 μg mL−1, respectively, but does not inhibit Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mouse myeloma NS-1 cells, or neonatal foreskin fibroblast cells at the tested concentrations[1].
