Beauvericin is a famous mycotoxin produced by many fungi, such as Beaveria bassiana and Fusarium spp. Beauvericin is a cyclic hexadepsipeptide (Figure 1) that belongs to the enniatin antibiotic family. It contains three D-hydroxyisovaleryl and three N-methylphenylalanyl residues in an alternating sequence. Beauvericin was first isolated from Beaveria bassiana, which is a common and commercial entomopathogenic mycoinsecticide. Beauvericin was one of the active constituents of B. bassiana and was confirmed to have antimicrobial and anti-tumor activities. Beauvericin has a strong antibacterial activity against human, animal and plant pathogenic bacteria with no selectively between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The cytotoxicity of beauvericin to human tumor cells has been frequently reported.
