ascamycin

Ascamycin 是一种由链霉菌属产生的 5'-O-磺酰胺核糖核苷抗生素，对黄单胞菌类显示出选择性的抗菌活性，对柠檬黄单胞菌、口蹄疫黄单胞菌和噬菌体具有抑制作用，MIC 值分别为0.4μg mL、12.5μg mL 和12.5μg mL。

Nocardamine is a ferrioxamine siderophore that has been found inStreptomycesand has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4It chelates iron in a chrome azurol S assay (IC50= 9.9 μM).1Nocardamine inhibitsM. smegmatisandM. bovisbiofilm formation (MIC = 10 μM for both), an effect that can be reversed by iron.2It is cytotoxic to T47D, SK-MEL-5, SK-MEL-28, and RPMI-7951 cancer cells (IC50s = 6, 18, 12, and 14 μM, respectively).3Nocardamine also induces morphological changes in BM-N4 insect cells.4 1.Lopez, J.A.V., Nogawa, T., Futamura, Y., et al.Nocardamin glucuronide, a new member of the ferrioxamine siderophores isolated from the ascamycin-producing strain Streptomyces sp. 80H647J.
