\an`ti*my"cin\ ([a^]n`t[i^]*m[imac]"s[i^]n), n.
1. one of several antibiotic substances produced by several
species of
Streptomyces, active against various fungi.
They are used only experimentally, not in medicine. The
two best-known antimycins are antimycin A1 (

C26H36N2O9). They are notable for
their mechanism of action, interference with the proton
pumping mechanism of fungi.
