A blue secondary metabolite complex, named kyanomycin (2), in addition to epsilon-rhodomycinone (1), was detected in the mycelium extract of Nonomuria sp. NN 22303 by HPLC-diode array and HPLC-electrospray mass spectrometry screening. The chemical structures of the novel compounds were determined to be unusual anthracycline-phosphatidylethanolamine hybrids by spectroscopic and chemical degradation experiments.

In the course of a HPLC with diode array detection screening programme for detection of novel secondary metabolites, enterobactin, its biosynthetic precursor 2,3-dihydroxy-N-benzoylserine and its linear dimer and trimer condensation products were found to be produced by two Streptomyces strains besides the trihydroxamate-type siderophores desferri-ferrioxamine B and E.

Although most antibiotics do not need metal ions for their biological activities, there are a number of antibiotics that require metal ions to function properly, such as bleomycin, streptonigrin, and bacitracin, which are the title subjects of this review.
