Haliangicin, a Novel Antifungal Metabolite Produced by a Marine Myxobacterium. 2. Isolation and Structural Elucidation.

Abstract

A novel antifungal antibiotic, haliangicin, was isolated from a culture broth of marine myxobacterium, Haliangium luteum. The planar structure of haliangicin was elucidated by spectroscopic analyses and was shown to be a new polyunsaturated compound containing beta-methoxyacrylate moiety.
