title: Signal transduction inhibitors, hibarimicins, A, B, C, D and G produced by Microbispora. I. Taxonomy, fermentation, isolation and physico-chemical and biological properties.
abstract: Strain TP-AO121 which produces a complex of novel tyrosine kinase inhibitors designated hibarimicins A, B, C, D and G was considered to be a new subspecies of Microbispora rosea, and the name, Microbispora rosea subsp. hibaria, was proposed. Hibarimicins A, B, C and D specifically inhibited the src tyrosine kinase activity without affecting protein kinase A or protein kinase C. They also showed in vitro anti-Gram-positive bacterial and antitumor activities. The molecular formulae of hibarimicins A, B, C, D and G were assigned to be C85H112O37, C85H112O37, C83H110O36, C85H112O38, and C85H112O39 respectively.
