title: Metabolic products of microorganisms. 252. Isolation of new nikkomycins from Streptomyces tendae.
abstract: Two new nikkomycins were isolated from the culture broth of Streptomyces tendae Tü 901/PF 53+-3. The new compounds are the dipeptide nikkomycin pseudo-Z (psi Z) and tripeptide nikkomycin pseudo-J (psi J), which are analogues to nikkomycins Z and J. Nikkomycins pseudo-Z and pseudo-J have a C-glycosidic linkage between uracil and 5-amino-5-deoxy-D-allo-furanuronic acid, which is comparable to the C-glycosidic bond in pseudouridine. The new Cc-nucleoside nikkomycins exhibit a lower biological activity than the CN-nucleoside nikkomycins.
