CIDE DICTIONARY
antimycin, n.
one of several antibiotic substances produced by several species of Streptomyces , active against various fungi. They are used only experimentally, not in medicine. The two best-known antimycins are antimycin A1 (C28H40N2O9 ) and antimycin A3 (C26H36N2O9 ). They are notable for their mechanism of action, interference with the proton pumping mechanism of fungi.
