carbazomycin a

Carbazomycin A is a bacterial metabolite that has been found in Streptomyces and has diverse biological activities.1,2It is active againstS. aureus,T. asteroides, andT. mentagrophytes(MIC = 12.5 μg ml for all), as well as the plant pathogenic fungusP. oryzae(MIC = 25 μg ml). Carbazomycin A is cytotoxic to MCF-7, KB, NCI H187, and Vero cells (IC50s = 26.2, 30.1, 18.4, and 32.6 μg ml, respectively).2 1.Sakano, K.-I., Ishimaru, K., and Nakamura, S.New antibiotics, carbazomycins A and B.

Carbazomycin B is a bacterial metabolite that has been found in Streptomyces and has diverse biological activities. It is active against a panel of seven fungi and a panel of seven bacteria, as well as P. falciparum and C. albicans. It is also active against a panel of five plant pathogenic fungi. Carbazomycin B is cytotoxic to MCF-7, KB, NCI H187, and Vero cells. It also inhibits 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) activity in RBL-1 cell extracts (IC50 = 1.5 µM).

Carbazomycin C is a bacterial metabolite that has been found in Streptomyces and has diverse biological activities. It is active against S. aureus, B. anthracis, B. subtilis, and M. flavus, the fungi T. asteroides and T. mentagrophytes, and P. falciparum. It is also active against a panel of five plant pathogenic fungi. Carbazomycin C is cytotoxic to MCF-7, KB, and NCI H187 cells. It also inhibits 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) activity in RBL-1 cell extracts.

Carbazomycin D is a bacterial metabolite that has been found inStreptomycesand has diverse biological activities.1,2It is active against the fungiT. asteroidesandT. mentagrophytes(MIC = 100 μg ml for both) and the bacteriumM. tuberculosis(IC50= 25 μg ml). Carbazomycin D is cytotoxic to MCF-7, KB, NCI H187, and Vero cells (IC50s = 21.3, 33.2, 12.9, and 34.3 μg ml, respectively).2 1.Naid, T., Kitahara, T., Kaneda, M., et al.Carbazomycins C, D, E and F, minor components of the carbazomycin complexJ.
