• nomimicin, hereafter named nomimicin A, were isolated from the culture extract of Actinomadura sp. AKA43 collected from floating particles in the deep-sea water of Sagami Bay, Japan. The structures of nomimicins B, C, and D were elucidated through the interpretation of NMR and MS analytical data, and the

• , nomimicin A (4) [15]. From the extract of the fermentation broth cultured in A11M medium, an additional new tetronate polyketide, nomimicin D (3), was isolated (Figure 1). Nomimicin B (1) was obtained as a colorless amorphous solid. The molecular formula was determined to be C30H40O8, based on the
