Abstract:
Our continuation on the bio-assay guided isolation from Myrtus communis Linn. led to the discovery of a new dibezofuran type phloroglucinol 1,1'-(1,3,7,9-tetrahydroxydibenzo[b,d]furan-2,8-diyl)bis(ethan-1-one) 1. The structure was established through detailed spectroscopic studies including one and two dimensional NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization high resolution mass spectrometer (ESI-HRMS). The crude acetone extract from M. communis (AMA), dichloromethane fraction (DCM), and the isolated pure compound 1 were tested against pathogenic bacteria. Compound 1 displayed higher antibacterial activity against the Gram-positive and Gram-negative Staphlocococus aureus and Escherichia coli respectively as compared to the crude extract and fractions.

Types of RNA
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.
