Mycosubtilin is a natural lipopeptide with antifungal and hemolytic activities and isolated from Bacillus species. It belongs to the iturin lipopeptide family.
Definition
Mycosubtilin is a natural lipopeptide. It is produced by the strains of Bacillus spp mainly by Bacillus subtilis. It was discovered due to its antifungal activities.[1] It belongs to the family of iturin lipopeptides[2]
Structure
Mycosubtilin is a heptapeptide, cyclized in a ring with a β-amino fatty acid.[3] The peptide sequence is composed of L-Asn-D-Tyr-D-Asn-L-Gln-L-Pro-D-Ser-L-Asn.[4]
Biological activities
Mycosubtilin has strong antifungal and hemolytic activities.[5][6] It is active against fungi and yeasts such as Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Penicillium notatum, and Fusarium oxysporum.[7][8][9]
Its antibacterial activity is quite limited to bacteria such as Micrococcus luteus.[10]
