A bacterial metabolite
6-Prenylindole is a bacterial metabolite that has been found in Streptomyces and has antifungal and antimalarial properties.1 It is active against A. brassicicola strain TP-F0423 and F. oxysporum f. sp. tulipae TU-4-2 (15 and 30 μg/disc in the paper disc assay), and also drug-resistant P. falciparum strain K1 (IC50 = 21 μg/ml).2
