In screening new antibiotics, varigomycin produced by a new fungal species Streptomyces variegatus Sveshnikova et Timuk was isolated. By physicochemical properties varigomycin belongs to carbonyl conjugated pentaens. It is a new representative of this antibiotic group. Varigomycin differs from the known representatives of this group by the presence of glucose, sugar in its molecule.
