Title: Korormicin, a novel antibiotic specifically active against marine gram-negative bacteria, produced by a marine bacterium. Author: Yoshikawa K, Takadera T, Adachi K, Nishijima M, Sano H. Journal: J Antibiot (Tokyo); 1997 Nov; 50(11):949-53. PubMed ID: 9592569. Abstract: A novel antibiotic named korormicin was isolated from the marine bacterium, Pseudoalteromonas sp. F-420. This strain was isolated from the surface of a macro alga Halimeda sp. collected from Palau (the Republic of Belau). The planar structure of korormicin was determined by the result of 2D NMR studies and mass spectral data. Korormicin had specific inhibitory activity against marine Gram-negative bacteria, but was inactive against terrestrial microorganisms.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
