Abstract
Novel antifungal lipopeptides, FR209602, FR209603 and FR209604, were isolated from the fermentation broth of a fungal strain No. 738 which was identified as Coleophoma crateriformis from morphological and physiological characteristics. The antibiotics were purified by solvent extraction, HP-20, YMC-ODS and silica gel column chromatography and lyophilization. These compounds were structurally similar to FR901379 previously reported by ourselves which had a sulfate residue in the cyclic peptide portion.
