title: FR901469, a novel antifungal antibiotic from an unidentified fungus No.11243. I. Taxonomy, fermentation, isolation, physico-chemical properties and biological properties.
abstract: FR901469 is a novel antifungal antibiotic produced by an unidentified fungus No.11243. This compound was isolated from the culture broth by solvent extraction, HP-20 and YMC ODS gel column chromatography, and lyophilization. FR901469 is a white powder which melts at 182 approximately 187 degrees C and possesses the molecular formula C71H116N14O23. This compound has good water solubility. FR901469 inhibited the activity of 1,3-beta-glucan synthase from Candida albicans with an IC50 value of 0.05 microg/ml, and displayed greater inhibitory activity than other 1,3-beta-glucan synthase inhibitors such as, WF11899A, echinocandin B, aculeacin A, and papulacandin B.
