Biosynthesis of cephalosporin C.

A L DEMAIN, J F NEWKIRK.   

Abstract

The superiority of d-methionine over l-methionine for stimulation of cephalosporin C synthesis in a crude medium was confirmed. The optimal level of dl-methionine was 0.5%. Methionine stimulates growth slightly but this is not thought to be the cause of the marked stimulation of antibiotic synthesis. Of a large number of sulfur compounds tested, only dl-methionine-dl-sulfoxide and S-methyl-l-cysteine showed considerable methionine-replacing activity. Lysine and alpha-aminoadipic acid were inactive.
