Linearmycin A
Linearmycin A is a polyene antibiotic that has been found in Streptomyces. It is active against the bacteria S. aureus and E. coli (MICs=3.1 and 1.6 μg/disc, respectively), the fungi S. cerevisiae and C. albicans (MICs=0.1 and 1.6 μg/disc, respectively), and the plant pathogenic fungus A. niger in disc assays (MIC=0.2 μg/disc) . Linearmycin A induces lysis and degradation of B. subtilis as a component of Streptomyces Mg1 extract.
