Sclerosporin is a bioactive compound produced by certain species of Sclerosporium, a genus of fungi. It acts as an antibiotic by inhibiting the growth of bacterial cells, particularly by interfering with the synthesis of cell wall components, which disrupts the integrity of bacterial membranes. Its applications are mainly in agricultural and medical fields, where it is studied for its potential use in controlling plant pathogens and as a template for developing new antimicrobial agents.
