[Progress on studies of nikkomycin structure and some genes related to nikkomycin biosynthesis].
Nikkomycin is a kind of new antifungal antibiotics. More than 20 biologically active nikkomycin structures have been isolated and the main active structures are nikkomycins X, Z, I, J. Here, we introduce the progress on the studies of nikkomycin structures, the relationships between nikkomycin structure and biological activity, and genes related to nikkomycin biosynthesis.
