Abstract:
The present invention relates to: coralmycin A and B, which are novel compounds exhibiting antimicrobial activity, an isomer thereof, a derivative thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; a microorganism of the genus Corallococcus producing the same; and an antimicrobial use thereof. The coralmycin A and B have very strong antimicrobial activity against antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as MRSA, QRSA, VRE, VISA, etc.; Acinetobacter baumannii, which is a multidrug-resistant microorganism; and also against gram-positive microorganisms and gram-negative microorganisms. Therefore, the present invention can be very useful for prevention, treatment and alleviation of various microbial infections, and thus can be widely applied to the medical supply, quasi-drug, food, and feed industries.
