Content edit
Can anyone else confirm that novobiocin is not an aminoglycoside antibiotic that targets protein? The recent changes made to this article are quite dramatic in replacing the earlier content. -- Permafrost 11:20, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
Structure edit
Within the article is the statement Novobiocin is an aromatic ether compound.
I don't see any ether groups. I see a coumarin group and an acetal group. I am hesitant to remove this statement because it has been in the article so long. Does this statement have any biochemical meaning that I am unaware of, or should it be removed? 66.166.38.18 (talk) 16:17, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
- Go ahead and remove it. Describing a benzopyrone as an "aromatic ether" is inaccurate. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 16:45, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
