Aurodox is a compound that can be isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces goldiniensis. It belongs to a class of compounds known as polyketides. Aurodox inhibits bacterial protein biosynthesis by interrupting the functional cycle of Elongation Factor-Tu (EF-Tu). This is a weakly acidic antibiotic that causes a ribosomal stoppage during translation. In environmental science, the study of natural compounds like Aurodox contributes to the understanding of microbial interactions and the discovery of novel bioactive substances. This knowledge can be applied in bioremediation strategies, where specific bacteria are used to degrade or neutralize pollutants in the environment.
