Abstract
In a screening programme for substances with morphogenic effects on the nikkomycin producer strain Streptomyces tendae Tü 901 we identified a metabolite, which induced aerial mycelium formation in the bld mutant Tü 901/S 2566-EM 1. By using a HPLC UV/Vis absorbance spectral library we could confirm that this compound was identical with the macrolide antibiotic borrelidin. 100 ng borrelidin/paperdisc were sufficient to show an evident morphological effect.
