Descriptor lincosamidas
Scope note: Familia de glucósidos relacionados con la LINCOMICINA que contienen un anillo de pirrolidina unida a una fracción de piranosa mediante un enlace amida. Los miembros de esta familia se definen por la organización de grupos constitutivos específicos en la molécula de lincomicina. Muchas lincosamidas son ANTIBIÓTICOS producidos por diversas especies de STREPTOMYCES.
