Trichomycin B, a polyene macrolide from Streptomyces.
نویسنده
چکیده
Two polyene macrolide, trichomycins A and B, were compared by physico-chemical and microbiological methods. The two antibiotics were found to have the same molecular formula, C58H84N2O18 (MW 1,096), by elemental analysis and FAB-MS. However, 1H and 13C NMR spectrometry studies indicated that the hydroxyl at C-5 of trichomycin A located on C-9 in trichomycin B. Trichomycin B possessed lower activities against fungi and yeasts than those of trichomycin A.

Characterization of Streptomyces padanus JAU4234, a producer of actinomycin X₂, fungichromin, and a new polyene macrolide antibiotic.
Strain JAU4234, identified as Streptomyces padanus, was isolated from soil collected in Jiangxi Province, China. It produced actinomycin X2, fungichromin, and a new polyene macrolide compound with antifungal activity, antifungalmycin 702. Antifungalmycin 702 had good general antifungal activity and may have potential future agricultural and/or clinical applications.
متن کاملCharacterization of the polyene macrolide P450 epoxidase from Streptomyces natalensis that converts de-epoxypimaricin into pimaricin.
The biosynthesis of the antifungal agent pimaricin by Streptomyces natalensis has been proposed to involve a cytochrome P450 encoded by the gene pimD. Pimaricin is derived from its immediate precursor de-epoxypimaricin by epoxidation of the C-4-C-5 double bond on the macrolactone ring. We have overproduced PimD with a N-terminal His6 affinity tag in Escherichia coli and purified the enzyme for ...
متن کاملRedesign of polyene macrolide glycosylation: engineered biosynthesis of 19-(O)-perosaminyl-amphoteronolide B.
Most polyene macrolide antibiotics are glycosylated with mycosamine (3,6-dideoxy-3-aminomannose). In the amphotericin B producer, Streptomyces nodosus, mycosamine biosynthesis begins with AmphDIII-catalyzed conversion of GDP-mannose to GDP-4-keto-6-deoxymannose. This is converted to GDP-3-keto-6-deoxymannose, which is transaminated to GDP-mycosamine by the AmphDII protein. The glycosyltransfera...
متن کاملCandihexin polyene macrolide complex: physicochemical characterization and antifungal activities of the single components.
The candihexin complex produced by a natural mutant of Streptomyces viridoflavus has been resolved into eight components. At least six of them, having hexaene chromophores, can be separated directly by thin-layer chromatography. The four major components, candihexins A, B, E, and F, account for about 90% of the total complex. They have been isolated and purified to homogeneity. All the major co...
متن کاملChemical diversity of polyene macrolides produced by Streptomyces noursei ATCC 11455 and recombinant strain ERD44 with genetically altered polyketide synthase NysC.
The gram-positive bacterium Streptomyces noursei ATCC 11455 produces a complex mixture of polyene macrolides generally termed nystatins. Although the structures for nystatins A(1) and A(3) have been reported, the identities of other components of the nystatin complex remain obscure. Analyses of the culture extract from the S. noursei wild type revealed the presence of several nystatin-related c...
