Molecular detection of streptomycin-producing streptomycetes in Brazilian soils.
Actinomycetes were isolated from soybean rhizosphere soil collected as two field sites in Brazil. All the isolates were identified as Streptomyces species and were screened for streptomycin production and the presence of two genes, strA and strB1, known to be involved in streptomycin biosynthesis in Streptomyces griseus. Antibiotic resistance profiles were determined for 53 isolates from cultiv...
متن کاملStreptomycin resistance in a streptomycin-producing microorganism.
Cell-free extracts of Streptomyces bikiniensis contain an adenosine 5'-triphosphate-dependent kinase which inactivates streptomycin (Sm) and dihydrostreptomycin by phosphorylation. The products have been identified as streptomycin 6-phosphate and dihydrostreptomycin 6-phosphate. Activity was not present in logarithmic-phase cells, which were susceptible to 25 mug of Sm per ml. In stationary-pha...
متن کاملrapid isolation and molecular detection of streptomycin-producing streptomycetes
introduction: streptomyces species are mycelial, aerobic gram-positive bacteria that are isolated from soil and produce a diverse range of antibiotics. streptomyces griseus produces the antibiotic, streptomycin and forms spores even in a liquid culture. the gene cluster for the production of streptomycin antibiotic contains strr gene that encodes strr, a pathway-specific regulator. then, this p...
متن کاملEnzymatic phosphorylation of streptomycin by extracts of streptomycin-producing strains of Streptomyces.
Extracts of post-exponential phase mycelia of Streptomyces bikiniensis ATCC 11062, and other streptomycin-producers, catalyze phosphorylation of streptomycin and dihydrostreptomycin with adenosine-5'-triphosphate. The phosphate is esterified with an -OH group of the streptidine moiety. It is suggested that O-phosphoryl-streptomycin might serve as an intracellular precursor of extracellular stre...
متن کاملStreptomycin
ever, certain adjuvants, e.g. para-aminosalicylic acid, may delay the development of drug-resistance. Streptomycin is not absorbed from the alimentary tract and, therefore, it must always be given intramuscularly as well as directly, where possible, into the spaces which it is desired to render free from bacteria. The drug is excreted by the kidney. After intramuscular injection an adequate blo...
