Abstract
A mutant strain derived from Nocardia mediterranei N813 accumulated a number of novel ansamycins structurally related to the protostreptovaricins and to rifamycin W. One of the main components of this ansamycin complex, protorifamycin I (8-deoxyrifamycin W), was purified and identified by means of chemical and spectroscopic methods.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
