Equisetin BiologicalActivity

Description	Equisetin is an N-methylserine-derived acyl tetramic acid isolated from a terrestrial fungus Fusarium equiseti NRRL 5537[1]. Equisetin is a tetramate-containing natural product with antibiotic and cytotoxic activity[2]. Equisetin inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and HIV-1 integrase activity but shows no activity against Gram-negative bacteria[3]. Equisetin is a Quorum-sensing inhibitor (QSI) that attenuates QS-regulated virulence phenotypes in P. aeruginosa without affecting the growth of bacterias, serves as a leading compound for the treatment of P. aeruginosa infections[4].
