Mycofactocin is a relatively recently identified metabolite produced by certain bacteria, particularly those in the phylum Actinobacteria, including some mycobacterial species. It is thought to play a role in the response of these bacteria to oxidative stress and may also be implicated in other cellular processes. Mycofactocin is known to be involved in the redox biology of cells, which includes the regulation of oxidative states and response to reactive oxygen species (ROS).
