Six components of new cephem antibiotics, cephabacin M1-6, were isolated from the culture filtrate of Xanthomonas lactamgena YK-431 by various types of column chromatographies and preparative reverse-phase HPLC. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analyses and degradation studies. They consist of 7-methoxydeacetylcephalosporin C as a nucleus and a tri- to heptapeptide including a new amino acid, which is bound at the 3-position with an ester bond.

New 7-methoxycephem antibiotics were found in culture filtrates of a bacterium isolated from a plant and named cephabacin M1-6. They are the first members of 7-methoxycephem antibiotics of bacterial origin. The producing organism was taxonomically characterized and identified as Xanthomonas lactamgena YK-431; other strains of this species have recently been reported to produce cephabacin F and H group antibiotics.
