A new tetracycline-type antibiotic named viridicatumtoxin B along with the known compound viridicatumtoxin has been isolated from the mycelium of liquid fermentation cultures of Penicillium sp. FR11. The structure of viridicatumtoxin B was determined on the basis of MS and NMR data. Viridicatumtoxin B inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus including methicillin-resistant S. aureus and quinolone-resistant S. aureus with MIC (microg/ml) of 0.5, which is similar with that of vancomycin, but 8-64 times higher activity than that of tetracycline.
从青霉属菌株FR11液体发酵培养物的菌丝体中分离出一种名为绿黄霉素B的新型四环素类抗生素以及已知化合物绿黄霉素。基于质谱和核磁共振数据确定了绿黄霉素B的结构。绿黄霉素B抑制金黄色葡萄球菌的生长,包括耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌和耐喹诺酮金黄色葡萄球菌,其最低抑菌浓度(μg/ml)为0.5,与万古霉素相似,但活性比四环素高8至64倍。
