Abstract
Linear biosynthesis products from balhimycin, a tricyclic glycopeptide antibiotic of the vancomycin type, were isolated from mutants of Amycolatopsismediterranei. The structures of these intermediates, determined by NMR spectroscopy, give new impulses for the understanding of the vancomycin biosynthesis.
