Abstract

Vanoxonin, a new inhibitor of thymidylate synthetase, was found in cultured broths of the strain MG245-CF2 classified as Saccharopolyspora hirsuta. Vanoxonin, C15H25N3O9, was obtained as colorless powder. Vanoxonin forms a vanadium complex which exhibits a strong inhibition against thymidylate synthetase. The concentration for 50%. inhibition of the enzyme (IC50) was 0.7 μg/ml.
