Application Notes
Actinobolin was isolated from fermentation broth of Streptomyces griseoviridis var. atrofaciens. Actinobolin had inhibitory activity against microbial cultures, tentatively identified as strains of Bacteroides melaninogenicus, Fusobacterium fusiforme, Leptotrichia buccalis and Veillonella parvula, obtained from patients with periodontal disease. Actinobolin inhibited protein synthesis in Escherichia coli. In mouse Adenocarcinoma 755 cells, both in vivo and in cell culture, actinobolin inhibited the synthesis of protein and DNA.
