Nourseothricin belongs to the Streptothricin group of aminonucleoside antibiotics. Its main application is - a selection tool in genetic engineering. It is effective for mammalian cells, yeasts and fungi, protozoa, bacteria, and blue-green algae.
Chemically, Nourseothricin is a mixture of closely related variants Streptothricin C, D, E, and F, differing in the length of ß-lysine homopolymer, with 1 to 4 ß-lysine residuals.
The data in this webpage, including the molecular image, belong to the Nourseothricin C (One Lysine residual)
