Description
It is produced by the strain of Pseudonocardia compacta subsp. Helvetica SANK 65185. It is a glycopeptidtic antibiotic. It has strong activity of anti-aerobic and anaerobic gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, but its protective effect against staphylococcus aureus infection in mice is lower than vancomycin.

1. Helvecardins A and B, novel glycopeptide antibiotics. I. Taxonomy, fermentation, isolation and physico-chemical properties
M Takeuchi, R Enokita, T Okazaki, T Kagasaki, M Inukai J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1991 Mar;44(3):263-70. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.44.263.
A strain of actinomycetes identified as Pseudonocardia compacta subsp. helvetica produced new glycopeptide antibiotics, helvecardins A and B. They were isolated from culture broth mainly by affinity chromatography of D-alanyl-D-alanine and preparative HPLC. The physico-chemical properties of helvecardins A and B showed that they resemble each other. Though helvecardin A was structurally related to beta-avoparcin, it clearly differed in the presence of an O-methyl moiety in its NMR spectrum.
2. Helvecardins A and B, novel glycopeptide antibiotics. III. Biological properties
M Takeuchi, T Katayama, M Inukai J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1991 Mar;44(3):278-81. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.44.278.
Helvecardins (HVCs) A and B were strongly active against aerobic and anaerobic Gram-positive bacteria including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), but they were inactive against Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. Though HVC A showed only slightly stronger antimicrobial activity than beta-avoparcin (AVP), its in vivo protective activity against S. aureus infection in mice was greatly superior to AVP.
3. Helvecardins A and B, novel glycopeptide antibiotics. II. Structural elucidation
M Takeuchi, S Takahashi, M Inukai, T Nakamura, T Kinoshita J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1991 Mar;44(3):271-7. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.44.271.
Helvecardins A and B, which are produced by Pseudonocardia compacta subsp. helvetica, are new members of glycopeptide antibiotics. They contain the same pseudoaglycone as beta-avoparcin and the same compositions of neutral sugar, amino sugar, and amino acid except that 2'-O-methylrhamnose was detected in helvecardins instead of rhamnose in beta-avoparcin, and mannose was not detected in helvecardin B. From these results and 1H NMR and mass spectral analyses, helvecardins A and B were determined beta-avoparcin 2'-O-methylated on rhamnose and demanosylhelvecardin A, respectively.
