Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA) as a natural product widely exists in microbial metabolites of Pseudomonads and Streptomycetes, which displays potent inhibitory activities against plant pathogens, and has medical antibacterial and antitumor effects, and so on. In this review, the biosynthesis and chemosynthesis of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid are summarized. At the same time, the diverse biological evaluations of its biosynthetic and chemosynthetic analogues are summarized, which could provide reference for the study of structural modifications and biological activities of these analogues.

Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA) shows potent inhibitory activities against plant pathogens and has medical antibacterial and antitumor effects, with diverse biological evaluations of its biosynthetic and chemosynthetic analogues.
