Rapamycin is a new antifungal antibiotic produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus NRRL 5491. It was isolated from the mycelium by solvent extraction, purified by silica gel column chromatography and crystallized as a colorless solid which melts at 183 approximately to 185 degrees C and has the empirical formula C56H89NO14. From its characteristic ultraviolet absorption spectrum rapamycin can be classified as a triene. It is highly active against various Candida species, especially Candida albicans. Its activity is compared with that of amphotericin B, candicidin and nystatin.
雷帕霉素是一种由吸水链霉菌NRRL 5491产生的新型抗真菌抗生素。它通过溶剂萃取从菌丝体中分离出来,经硅胶柱色谱法纯化,并结晶为无色固体,熔点约为183至185摄氏度,实验式为C56H89NO14。根据其特征紫外吸收光谱,雷帕霉素可归类为三烯类。它对各种念珠菌属具有高度活性,尤其是白色念珠菌。将其活性与两性霉素B、杀假丝菌素和制霉菌素的活性进行了比较。
