  • Title: Conglobatin, a novel macrolide dilactone from Streptomyces conglobatus ATCC 31005.
    Author: Westley JW, Liu CM, Evans RH, Blount JF.
    Journal: J Antibiot (Tokyo); 1979 Sep; 32(9):874-7. PubMed ID: 511778.
    Abstract:
    Fermentation of deposited cultures of Streptomyces conglobatus, known to produce the polyether antibiotic, ionomycin has resulted in the isolation and characterization of a second metabolite, conglobatin (C28H38N2O6). X-Ray analysis revealed a dimeric macrolide dilactone structure for conglobatin, similar to the structures of the mold metabolites vermiculin and pyrenophorin, from which the absolute configuration of conglobatin has been inferred. The dimer consists of two molecules of 7-hydroxy-8-oxazoyl-2,4,6-trimethyl-2-octenoic acid joined by two ester linkages.
