Production and Biological Activity of Laidlomycin, Anti-MRSA/VRE Antibiotic from Streptomyces sp. CS684

Culture broth of a streptomycete isolate, Streptomyces sp. CS684 showed antibacterial activity on methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE). Among purified substances from the organism, CSU-1, which is active against MRSA and VRE, is a C∧37H∧62O∧12...

Zusammenfassung:Culture broth of a streptomycete isolate, Streptomyces sp. CS684 showed antibacterial activity on methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE). Among purified substances from the organism, CSU-1, which is active against MRSA and VRE, is a C∧37H∧62O∧12Na (M+, 721.3875), and identified as laidlomycin. The anti-MRSA and anti-VRE activity of CSU-1 was stronger than oxacillin and vancomycin. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain CS684 is very similar to Streptomyces ardus NRRL 2817∨T, whereas the ability of Streptomyces sp. CS684 to produce laidlomycin was shown to be unique.
