No. Product Strain Properties / Mechanism Application
1 Doxorubicin Streptomyces sp.
  • An anthracycline antitumor antibiotic that intercalates into double-stranded DNA and inhibits topoisomerase II, leading to disruption of DNA replication and induction of apoptosis.
  • Widely applied in the research and development of anticancer therapeutics.
  • It is a first-line chemotherapeutic agent for various cancers, especially breast cancer, lymphoma, and sarcoma.
  • A potential cytotoxic payload source for antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs).
2 Staurosporine/Midostaurin Streptomyces sp.
  • A natural broad-spectrum protein kinase inhibitor that induces apoptosis.
  • Acts on multiple cellular signaling pathways with significant impact on cell growth and differentiation.
  • Commonly used as a tool compound in pharmacological research.
  • An important lead compound for the development of protein kinase inhibitors.
3 Calicheamicin Micromonospora sp.
  • A potent enediyne-class antitumor antibiotic.
  • Binds to the minor groove of DNA and induces double-strand breaks, resulting in strong cytotoxicity.
  • Widely applied as a cytotoxic payload in antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs).
  • Serves as an important model compound for studying DNA damage and repair.
4 Tacrolimus Streptomyces sp.
  • A macrolide immunosuppressant that binds to FKBP12 and inhibits calcineurin, thereby blocking T-cell activation and IL-2 production.
  • Widely used in immunosuppression research, including transplantation immunity and autoimmune disease models.
  • Extensively applied in dermatology and studies of immune-related disease mechanisms.
5 Milbemycin Streptomyces sp.
  • A macrolide compound that binds to glutamate-gated chloride channels in the nerve and muscle cells of invertebrates, leading to paralysis and death of parasites.
  • Applied in animal health and parasitology research, particularly in studies of antiparasitic resistance and treatment.
  • Serves as a lead compound for the development of novel anthelmintics and agricultural pest control agents.
6 Spinosad Saccharopolyspora sp.
  • A natural macrolide insecticide that acts on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect nervous system, causing neuronal hyperexcitation and paralysis.
  • Relatively low in toxicity to mammals and characterized by environmentally friendly properties.
  • Widely applied in pest control and in insecticidal formulations for pets.
  • Characterized by its eco-friendliness, high selectivity, and strong safety profile.
7 Paraherquamide Penicillium sp.
  • An indole alkaloid compound that functions as a neuromuscular junction blocker, affecting the motor activity of parasites.
  • Has potential for development as a novel anthelmintic in the field of animal health.
  • Can be used as a tool compound for research on neuromuscular function.
