Methylenolactocin（Cat No.:M021692） is a natural compound known for its antibacterial properties, primarily found in certain species of plants. Structurally, it is a lactone, a type of cyclic ester, which is characterized by a methylene group linked to the lactone ring. This molecular structure contributes to its biological activity, particularly against Gram-positive bacteria. Methylenolactocin is of interest in pharmaceutical research for its potential as an alternative to traditional antibiotics, especially in an era of increasing antibiotic resistance.
