Satosporins A and B, two novel glucosylated polyketides, were isolated from the actinomycete Kitasatospora griseola MF730-N6. The polyketides possess an unprecedented tricyclic ring system that was fully characterized using a combination of spectroscopic analyses and computational calculations. Satosporin A was quantitatively converted into its aglycon homologue, satosporin C, using a β-glucosidase. The determination of the absolute stereochemistry was achieved using solution TDDFT/ECD calculations and chemical derivatization methods.

An oligonucleotide-microarray method was developed for the detection of Kitasatospora species in soil samples. The 16S-23S rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence of these antibiotics-producing actinomycetes was applied to design short oligonucleotide probes. Two different 26-mers were synthesized, specific to each species used.

These strains produced long spore chains on aerial mycelium and contained LL- and meso-diaminopimelic acids (DAPs) in the cell wall. On the basis of morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics and phylogenetic analysis, these five strains were classified into the genus Kitasatospora.
