title: Isolation and structure elucidation of vicenistatin M, and importance of the vicenisamine aminosugar for exerting cytotoxicity of vicenistatin.
abstract: A new analogue of vicenistatin was isolated from the producing strain Streptomyces sp. HC-34. A characteristic of the elucidated structure involved the existence of a neutral sugar mycarose instead of an aminosugar vicenisamine of vicenistatin. The absolute stereochemistry of the new analogue (named as vicenistatin M) was determined by the synthesis of D-mycarose and of vicenistatin M itself. Biological testing of vicenistatin M suggested the importance of vicenisamine for exerting the cytotoxicity of vicenistatin.
