Strobilurin E is a novel antibiotic of the (E)-β-methoxyacrylate (MOA) class produced by mycelial cultures of the agaric Crepidotus fulvotomentosus. In addition to an inhibition of fungal respiration, a feature of all MOA-antibiotics, the compound exhibits very high cytostatic activities which are accompanied by reversible morphological alterations of the cells.
