Description

It is produced by the strain of Str. lydicus No. 15748. It is an antibiotic that inhibits Gram-negative bacteria by inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls and promoting the formation of spheroplasts.

Malioxamycin (1) is a new antibiotic produced by Streptomyces lydicus No. 15748. The structure of malioxamycin has been determined by nmr and mass spectra to possess a hydroxamic acid bond between L-valine and D-malic acid. This structure was confirmed by total synthesis of the antibiotic with (R)-aminooxysuccinic acid and the active ester of L-valine.

Strain No. 15748, identifies as Streptomyces lydicus, produces a new antibiotic malioxamycin. Malioxamycin is a water-soluble, amphoteric antibiotic with low molecular weight, having a valine and a malic acid moieties in its structure. It gave a positive ninhydrin and ferric chloride reactions. Malioxamycin inhibited the growth of some Gram-negative bacteria by acting on peptidoglycan synthesis in the cell wall and produced spheroplasts from those sensitive bacteria.
