Article	Year
Himastatin, a new antitumor antibiotic from Streptomyces hygroscopicus. I. Taxonomy of producing organism, fermentation and biological activity. The Journal of antibiotics, 1990, Volume: 43, Issue:8 Strain C39108-P210-51 (ATCC 53653), an actinomycete isolated from a soil sample collected in India, was found to produce a new antitumor antibiotic, designated himastatin. Taxonomic studies on its morphological, cultural and physiological characteristics identified this producing strain as Streptomyces hygroscopicus C39108-P210-51. Himastatin shows antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria but it is inactive against Gram-negative bacteria. Himastatin prolongs the life span of mice inoculated with P388 leukemia and B16 melanoma cells. Topics: Animals; Antibiotics, Antineoplastic; Fermentation; Gram-Positive Bacteria; Leukemia P388; Melanoma, Experimental; Mice; Peptides, Cyclic; Soil Microbiology; Streptomyces	1990
