Biochemical characterization of two cloned resistance determinants encoding a paromomycin acetyltransferase and a paromomycin phosphotransferase from Streptomyces rimosus forma paromomycinus.
The mechanism conferring resistance to paromomycin in Streptomyces rimosus forma paromomycinus, the producing organism, was studied at the level of both protein synthesis and drug-inactivating enzymes. Ribosomes prepared from this organism grown in either production or nonproduction medium were fully sensitive to paromomycin. A paromomycin acetyltransferase and a paromomycin phosphotransferase,...
متن کاملNew antibiotic-producing streptomycetes, selected by antibiotic resistance as a marker. II. Features of a new antibiotic-producing clone obtained after fusion treatment.
A new antibiotic-producing Streptomyces strain SK2-52 obtained by a protoplast fusion treatment between Streptomyces griseus NP1-1 and S. tenjimariensis NM16 showed taxonomical features identical with those of S. griseus. The strain resistant to wider range of aminoglycoside antibiotics than the parental strains. This multiple resistance corresponded to the activities of streptomycin kinase and...
متن کاملMolecular Detection of Antibiotic Resistance Determinants in Lactobacillus Bacteria Isolated from Human Dental Plaques
Introduction: Dental caries is a significant public health problem which destroys the calcified tissues of the teeth. The frequency of lactobacilli in dental caries is usually high. The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of these bacteria in dental caries and to identify the antibiotic resistance patterns of them. Methods: Specimens from dental plaque were collected from 30 p...
متن کاملNew antibiotic-producing streptomycetes, selected by antibiotic resistance as a marker. I. New antibiotic production generated by protoplast fusion treatment between Streptomyces griseus and S. tenjimariensis.
A novel antibiotic was found after performing an interspecific fusion treatment between Streptomyces griseus and S. tenjimariensis by the selection of clones with a unique antibiotic resistance. Nonantibiotic-producing mutants of streptomycin (SM)-producing S. griseus SS-1198 with resistance to SM and istamycin (IS)-producing S. tenjimariensis SS-939 with resistance to kanamycin (KM) were proto...
متن کاملCharacterization, Prevalence and Antibiotic Resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii Infecting Foodstuff
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is a highly virulent bacterium. It causes opportunistic and nosocomial infections and is a threat to healthcare settings. It has also developed multidrug resistance (MDR) capacity. The nosocomial bacteria and antibiotic resistance are primordial and a significant public health concern. These bacteria and their threat can be prevented by reducing infected food...
