The rapid emergence of antimicrobial-resistant pathogenic microbes has accelerated the search for novel therapeutic agents. Here we report the discovery of antarmycin A (), an antibiotic containing a symmetric 16-membered macrodiolide core with two pendant vancosamine moieties, one of which is glucosylated, from deep-sea-derived SCSIO 07407. The biosynthetic gene cluster of was identified on a giant plasmid featuring transferable elements.

Natural antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for the development of a new generation of antimicrobials to combat antibiotic-resistant pathogens. They have found extensive applications in the fields of medicine, food, and agriculture. However, efficiently screening AMPs from natural sources poses several challenges, including low efficiency and high antibiotic resistance.

Restoration of the intestinal epithelial barrier is crucial for achieving mucosal healing, the therapeutic goal for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). During homeostasis, epithelial renewal is maintained by crypt stem cells and progenitors that cease to divide as they differentiate into mature colonocytes. Inflammation is a major effector of mucosal damage in IBD and has been found to affect epithelial stemness, regeneration and cellular functions.

Neglecting proper skin care and repeated exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation can have serious consequences, including skin burns, photoaging and even the development of skin cancer. UV radiation-induced damage is mediated by highly unstable and reactive molecules, named reactive oxygen species (ROS). To counteract ROS, the skin has an endogenous antioxidant system.
