Bioactivity | Waldiomycin is an antibiotic found in Streptomyces sp. MK844-mF10 that has inhibitory effects on low GC-content Gram-positive bacteria. Waldiomycin inhibits the activity of WalK kinase by targeting its ATP-binding domain, thereby blocking the WalK/WalR signal transduction system, which plays a role in cell growth and division[1][2]. |
