Syringomycin E is a member of a class of lipodepsinonapeptide molecules that are secreted by the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. Lipodepsinonapeptides comprise a closed ring of nine nonribosomally synthesized amino acids bonded to a fatty acid hydrocarbon tail. A commonly encountered pathovar (pv) of P. syringae is P. syringae pv syringae which secretes a number of closely related forms of the molecule.
