title: Identification and Biosynthetic Characterization of Natural Aromatic Azoxy Products from Streptomyces chattanoogensis L10.
abstract: Aromatic azoxy compounds recently attracted wide interest for their unique liquid crystalline properties. However, biosynthetic pathways of natural azoxy products have rarely been reported. Three novel aromatic azoxy compounds, azoxymycins A, B, and C, have been isolated and identified from Streptomyces chattanoogensis L10, and their biosynthetic pathways have been reported.
