Abstract excerpt

A polyphasic taxonomic study was undertaken to establish the genetic and phenotypic relationships among six actinomycetes that produce the immunosuppressant macrolides FK506, FK520/FK523 and rapamycin. Chemotaxonomic studies reveal that all have Type I cell walls. Gas chromatography (GC) of fatty acid methyl esters revealed patterns consistent for strains of Streptomyces with 16:0 and 15:0 anteiso predominating....
