A series of arginines specifically labeled with 13C and 15N or with 2H were synthesized and fed to Streptomyces L-1689-23. The streptothricin F isolated in each case was analyzed by 13C or 2H NMR, respectively, in order to determine the labeling pattern obtained. Arginine is apparently metabolized to a .beta.-ketoarginine, possibly via a pyridoxal phosphate adduct, and then via cyclization, reduction, rearrangement and hydroxylation to the streptolidine moiety. The pathway described can also account for the formation of other known antibiotics and for .beta.-hydroxy-.gamma.-amino acids.
