Indocarbazostatins C (3) and D (4), new inhibitors of NGF-induced neurite outgrowth were isolated from culture broth of a mutant strain, Streptomyces sp. MUV-6-83. The structural elucidation of 3 and 4 revealed that these inhibitors were methyl ester analogs of the corresponding ethyl ester compounds, indocarbazostatin (1) and indocarbazostatin B (2), respectively.
