New Streptomyces‐Derived Antibacterial Compounds Targeting Gram‐Positive Bacteria: A Systematic Review

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Gram‐positive bacteria like vancomycin‐resistant enterococci (VRE) and methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), are a growing concern. This review highlights the potential of the Streptomyces genus in producing novel antibacterial compounds against Gram‐positive bacteria.
