Background:

Benastatin A is a polyketide synthase-derived benastatin that has been found inStreptomycesand has diverse biological activities.^1,2,3It inhibits glutathione S-transferase (GST; K_i= 5 µM for the rat liver enzyme).²Benastatin A is active against several bacteria, including methicillin-resistantS. aureus(MRSA; MIC = 3.12 µg/ml). It induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at the G₁/G₀phase in Colon 26 mouse colon cancer cells when used at concentrations of 20 and 16 µM, respectively.³
