Glycinothricin, a new streptothricin-class antibiotic from Streptomyces griseus.

Abstract
Glycinothricin is a streptothricin-class antibiotic obtained for the first time from the culture broth of a strain of S. griseus. Glycinothricin, the deformimino derivative of antibiotic LL-AB664, gives N-methylstreptolidine, N-methyl-D-glucosamine and glycine on acid hydrolysis. In comparison with LL-AB664, glycinothricin is less active against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and less toxic to mice.
