It is an antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces platensis and exhibits inhibitory activity against fatty acid synthase. It has a role as an antimicrobial agent, an antibacterial agent, an EC 2.3.1.85 (fatty acid synthase) inhibitor and a bacterial metabolite. It is a dihydroxybenzoic acid, a monocarboxylic acid amide, a polycyclic cage, a cyclic ether, a cyclic ketone and an aromatic amide. It is a conjugate acid of a platensimycin(1-).

Substances that prevent infectious agents or organisms from spreading or kill infectious agents in order to prevent the spread of infection.
Compounds that interfere with FATTY ACID SYNTHASE resulting in a reduction of FATTY ACIDS. This is a target mechanism in humans of some ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENTS and ANTI-OBESITY AGENTS and of some ANTI-INFECTIVE AGENTS which interfere with CELL WALL and CELL MEMBRANE formation.
UsesPlatensimycin is a novel, broad spectrum, Gram-positive antibiotic produced by strains of Streptomyces platensis. Its discovery was heralded by high profile publication and commentary in the scientific and lay press. Platensimycin was discovered by a target-based, whole-cell screening strategy using an antisense differential sensitivity assay, based on the inhibition of fatty acid synthesis. Platensimycin inhibits bacterial growth by selectively inhibiting the elongation enzyme, b-ketoacyl acyl carrier protein synthase (FabF) of the fatty acid synthesis pathway.
UsesPlatensimycin is a broad spectrum gram-positive antibiotic.
