Ma and Ju et al. recently isolated 12 new ilamycin analogs (IlaG-R) from a 200 L scale culture of mutant Streptomyces atratus ZH16 ilaR. The analogs demonstrated a slightly culture of mutant Streptomyces atratus ZH16 ilaR. The analogs demonstrated a slightly different oxidation pattern when compared with the previously isolated ilamycins [27,28]. Most different oxidation pattern in comparison with the previously isolated ilamycins [27,28]. Most derivatives showed the identical antibacterial activity as the other ilamycins and rufomycins derivatives showed the same antibacterial activity as the other ilamycins and rufomycins with MIC’s inside the selection of 1-2 M against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, though essentially the most acwith MIC’s inside the range of 1-2 against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, when by far the most active tive examples as a result far have been ilamycin E and J (Figure five), both more active than rifamexamples thus far happen to be ilamycin E and J (Figure 5), both additional active than rifampicin picin used as a positive control. employed as a constructive handle.Figure 5.
