Title: Studies on marine microorganisms. V. A new antibiotic, aplasmomycin, produced by a streptomycete isolated from shallow sea mud. Author: Okami Y, Okazaki T, Kitahara T, Umezawa H. Journal: J Antibiot (Tokyo); 1976 Oct; 29(10):1019-25. PubMed ID: 994322. Abstract: A new antibiotic, aplasmomycin, which inhibits growth of Gram-positive bacteria including myobacteria in vitro, and plasmodia in vivo was obtained from a strain of Streptomyces griseus isolated from shallow sea sediment in Sagami Bay. The antibiotic forms colorless needle-like crystals and has a molecular formula of C41H60O14Na. Based on its physical and chemical properties, aplasmomycin was concluded to be a new antibiotic. The antibiotic was produced in selected media devised to relate to a marine environment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
