Engineered biosynthesis of novel spinosyns bearing altered deoxyhexose substituents.
Novel spinosyns have been prepared by biotransformation, using a genetically engineered strain of Saccharopolyspora erythraea, in which the beta-D-forosamine moiety in glycosidic linkage to the hydroxy group at C17 is replaced by alpha-L-mycarose.
