| Abstract: | The chemical nature of the Dragendorff-positive substance produced by Streptomyces albulus was investigated. The substance was found to be a homopolymer of l-lysine connected with 25 ~ 30 residues in an isopeptide linkage. The ?-poly-l-lysine is a unique natural substance not described before now. |
