- Abstract
- A actinomycete strain RK98-A74 was found to produce trichostatin and its derivatives through the screening program for natural compounds which activate the p21 promotor. We isolated trichostatin A and several derivatives by activity- and UV-guided separation. One of them was a new derivative, named trichostatin RK, substituted hydroxyl group of hydroxamic acid moiety in trichostatin A for methyl group.
