Abstract excerpt
Nonomuraea sp. ATCC 39727 is the producer of the A40926 complex of lipoglycopeptide antibiotics which contain chlorine atoms in amino acids 3 and 6 of the peptide backbone. Using a classical mutagenesis and selection approach we have isolated a Nonomuraea sp. ATCC 39727 mutant strain able to direct production towards new A40926 analogues dechloro-A40926 (DDC) lacking two chlorine atoms and the two...
