Butirosin is an interesting 2-deoxystreptamine (DOS)-containing aminoglycoside antibiotic produced by non-actinomycete Bacilli. Recently we were successful in purification of 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose synthase from butirosin-producer Bacillus circulans as the key enzyme for the biosynthesis of DOS, in cloning of the responsible gene

A semisynthetic aminoglycoside antibiotic 15, containing a cyclic gamma-amino-alpha-hydroxy acid, related to the 1-N-4-amino-2-hydroxybutyric acid (AHBA) side chain of butirosins and amikacin, has been prepared. Conveniently protected 3,2',6'-tris-N-tert-butoxycarbonylgentamicin C1a (12) was condensed with the phtalimido active ester 10 to give
