Abstract
Two compounds having biological activities, 3-indolethanol and (L-phe, L-pro) diketopiperazine, have been isolated from a new filamentous soil bacterium called Streptomyces sp. US24 strain.To our knowledge, it is the first time that these two active molecules are described from Streptomyces species. The structures of these two compounds were established on the basis on their spectral data such as IR, EI-MS, and ESI-MS spectrometry, as well as NMR 1D and 2D (COSY, HMQC, HMBC).
