That's another way to depict the structure of the molecule.

Molecular Formula: C25H32O4

Carbon atoms are at each angle except for that lone oxygen that's part of the extended ring structure. There are three oxygen atoms off of the extended ring structure.

Hydrogen atoms are understood. Carbon atoms are bound to four other atoms except when they have covalent double or triple bonds. Covalent bonds mean atoms share two or more pairs of electrons.

Anthracimycin's carbon atoms only have single or double covalent bonds. Single covalent bonds are represented by single lines; double bonds are represented by two lines, etc.

Wow, what an exciting discovery. Our lives just changed and most of us remain blissfully unaware.

May go down in history as the last medical innovation before ObamaCare completely strangled all incentives for research.

Thanks for posting this. I have not seen it anywhere else. A family member almost died from a MRSA infection last year.

in 2012 from sediments close to shore off Santa Barbara, California

Sediments from an environment that has continuous oil seeps from the sea floor that put oil tar on the beach sands. This is awful. In this case we must plug the oil seeps, vacuum up all the sediments, store them safely underground forever and walk away from this discovery, lest the oil companies possibly get favorable reflected publicity from such a discovery. Yes, people will die, but oil companies getting favorable reflected publicity from such a discovery is worse. You can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. (/liberal)
