Abstract

Because research on the genus Nocardia has not progressed as compared to the extensively studied genus Streptomyces, Nocardia is considered as a useful undeveloped resource for exploring natural products. In this study, a new γ-butyrolactone derivative, named inohanalactone (1), was isolated from Nocardia inohanensis IFM0092T. Inohanalactone possesses an aliphatic side chain containing 8 carbons, a vicinal diol, and a cis double bond. Inohanalactone was produced by N. inohanensis IFM0092T in the modified Czapek-Dox medium, whereas it was not produced in other media such as Nutrient broth, Waksman, and Yeast-Malt-Glucose media.
