Application Notes
O-Deacetylravidomycin is the more active and stable analogue of the ravidomycin complex produced by
Streptomyces ravidus. The metabolite shows potent, light-dependent antitumour activity. O-Deacetylravidomycin,
like the related gilvocarcins and chrysomycins, is thought to act as a topoisomerase II inhibitor.
