Product Description

Inosamycin A is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial antibiotic originally isolated from Str. hygroscopicus No. J296-21. Its antibacterial activity was comparable to that of neomycin, and about twice that of ribomycin.

A strain of Streptomyces hygroscopicus No. J296-21 (ATCC 39150) was found to produce a complex of new antibiotics, called inosamycins, which consisted of components A, B, C, D and E. They are novel aminocyclitol antibiotics structurally related to neomycin, paromomycin and ribostamycin. The antibiotic complex and each component of inosamycin exhibit a broad antibacterial spectrum but they are inactive against most of the aminoglycoside-resistant organisms. The antibacterial activity of inosamycin A, the major component of the complex, is comparable to that of neomycin but its acute toxicity is significantly lower (ca. 1/3) than that of neomycin.
2. Inosamycin, a complex of new aminoglycoside antibiotics. II. Structure determination
M Tsunakawa, M Hanada, H Tsukiura, M Konishi, H Kawaguchi J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1985 Oct;38(10):1313-21. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.38.1313.
Structures of the new aminocyclitol antibiotics, inosamycins A, B, C, D and E, have been determined by a combination of chemical degradation and spectroscopic studies. They are structurally related to neomycin, paromomycin and ribostamycin but differ in that all the inosamycin components contain 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine in place of 2-deoxystreptamine in the known aminoglycoside antibiotics.
