Metabolite Identification
Common NameAnserinone B
DescriptionAnserinone B is a secondary metabolite belonging to the chemical class of polyketides. Its chemical structure features a complex arrangement typical of this class, which often includes multiple rings and functional groups that contribute to its biological activity. Anserinone B has demonstrated potent antibacterial properties, particularly against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, with minimal inhibition concentration values ranging from 2 to 8 μg mL-1 (PMID:34787427 ). In metabolite profiling studies, anserinone B was identified among other secondary metabolites, including 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene and phelligridin B, indicating its presence in diverse biological pathways (PMID:31752824 ). Additionally, it has been isolated from marine-derived saltwater fungal cultures alongside other related compounds, suggesting its potential role in the ecological interactions of fungi and its contribution to the complex metabolic networks within these organisms (PMID:15043411 ). The structural features and biological activities of anserinone B highlight its significance in both chemistry and microbiology, warranting further investigation into its mechanisms of action and potential applications.
