Abstract
Seven new antimycin antibiotics, named antimycins A10, A11, A12, A13, A14, A15 and A16, were isolated from the fermentation broth of strains of Streptomyces spp. SPA-10191 and SPA-8893, along with known antimycins A1, A2, A3 and A4. The structures of the new antimycins were determined by spectral analyses, including 2D NMR techniques. These compounds exhibited antifungal activity against Candida utilis.
