Summary WhenActinoplanes strain ATCC 33076, the producer of A-16686 A1, A2 and A3 complex, is fermented in a suitable medium three additional factors, designated A′1, A′2 and A′3 are produced. These were isolated and characterized, and were shown to differ from the parent components of the original complex by lacking one mannose unit. Bioconversion of A factors into A′ factors was achieved by incubation with the mycelium ofActinoplanes ATCC 33076. Factor A′2 has better antibacterial activity than A2 against some bacteria.
