A new 16-membered macrolide named makinolide B (1) was isolated from Streptomyces sp. MK-19. The structure of makinolide B (1) was determined on the basis of 2D NMR experiments involving DQF-COSY, TOCSY, HSQC, and HMBC methods. Application of the paper disk diffusion method to makinolide B (1) showed weak antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus at the dose of 100 µg/disk.
