Gancidin W, a potential low-toxicity antimalarial agent isolated from an endophytic Streptomyces SUK1
Endophytic Streptomyces strains are potential sources for novel bioactive molecules. In this study, the diketopiperazine gancidin W (GW) was isolated sfrom the endophytic actinobacterial genus Streptomyces, SUK10, obtained from the bark of Shorea ovalis tree, and it was tested in vivo against Plasmo...
