Stereochemical aspects of virginiamycin biosynthesis: biosynthesis of antibiotic A33853

The biochemical pathways for the formation of the unusual amino acids found in virginiamycin M₁ and A33853 were investigated. Specifically tritiated and carbon 14 labeled serines were incorporated into virginiamycin M₁. (2S)-serine and (2S,3R)-[3-³H] serine were found to be precursors, thus giving e...
