Application Notes

Bicyclomycin is a polar metabolite first isolated from Streptomyces sapporonensis in 1972. The selective Gram negative profile of bicyclomycin is rare among Streptomyces metabolites. The primary site of action for bicyclomycin is thought to be the rho transcription termination factor.
