Biosynthetic studies of the antibacterial and antitumor antibiotics vineomycins A1 (1) and B2 (2), produced by Streptomyces matensis ssp. vineus, were carried out by labeling experiments with [1-13C]- and [1,2-13C2]sodium acetate followed by 13C NMR spectroscopy. The benz[a]anthraquinone chromophore of 1 is derived from a decacetate metabolite and decarboxylation at the carboxyl end, and 2 is formed via C-C bond cleavage of 1. Isolation of rabelomycin from the fermentation broth of the same strain suggests a close biosynthetic relationship among the simple benz[a]anthraquinone antibiotics such as rabelomycin, tetrangomycin, aquayamycin, a C-glycosylated benz[a]anthraquinone and vineomycins. These biosynthetic data prompted a reconsideration of the previously published structure of the antibiotic SS-228Y, which was revised.
