(+)-Usniacin
Also known as (9bS)-2,6-diacetyl-3,7,9-trihydroxy-8,9b-dimethyldibenzofuran-1-one
(+)-Usniacin is isolated from isolated from lichens, binds at the ATP-binding pocket of mTOR, and inhibits mTORC1/2 activity· (+)-Usniacin inhibits the phosphorylation of mTOR downstream effectors: Akt (Ser473), 4EBP1, S6K, induces autophay, with anti-cancer activity· (+)-Usniacin possesses antimicrobial activity against a number of planktonic gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, and Enterococcus faecium
