Description

A polypeptide compound produced by Penicillium fermentation, its preparation method and application Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of microbial development and application technology, specifically to a polypeptide compound produced by Penicillium fermentation, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] The overuse and misuse of antibiotics both domestically and internationally have led to the rapid emergence of drug-resistant bacteria and genes, significantly reducing the therapeutic potential of antibiotics against various pathogens in humans and animals, and seriously threatening the effectiveness of antibiotic treatment and human health. Deep infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria have become a new challenge for anti-infective therapy in the new century. As early as 2011, the World Health Organization proposed a "global strategy to control bacterial resistance," elevating the issue of bacterial resistance to a global crisis. The situation of bacterial resistance in clinical practice in my country is extremely serious, with high detection rates of various common multidrug-resistant and pan-drug-resistant bacteria. Major drug-resistant bacteria include methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and macrolide-resistant Streptococcus (MRSP). Furthermore, the number of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae has been rising rapidly in recent years, all of which pose significant challenges to clinical treatment. The rapid spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria makes the prevention, control, and treatment of bacterial infections even more challenging, but the development of new structural and mechanism-based antimicrobial drugs in my country lags significantly behind the current situation of multidrug resistance.

[0003] Therefore, it is urgent to expand new antibiotic resources and find new antibacterial drugs to cope with the increasingly serious situation of multidrug resistance. Summary of the Invention
