Enzymatic Basis of Hygromycin B Resistance in Escherichia coli
A plasmid conferring resistance to the aminocyclitol antibiotic hygromycin B was isolated from Escherichia coli. The gene conferring resistance to this drug was cloned in pBR322, and the gene was localized to a fragment of ca. 1,510 base pairs. Resistance to hygromycin B is determined by an aminocyclitol phosphotransferase that modifies hygromycin B and structurally related antibiotics. The spe...
متن کاملMicrobial transformation of artemisinin by Aspergillus terreus
BACKGROUND Artemisinin (1) and its derivatives are now being widely used as antimalarial drugs, and they also exhibited good antitumor activities. So there has been much interest in the structural modification of artemisinin and its derivatives because of their effective bioactivities. The microbial transformation is a promising route to obtain artemisinin derivatives. The present study focuses...
متن کاملPotential basis for amphotericin B resistance in Aspergillus terreus.
This study investigated the basis for intrinsic amphotericin B (AMB) resistance in Aspergillus terreus. The ergosterol content, cell wall composition, and lipid peroxidation level had no influence on AMB resistance. The level of catalase production in A. terreus was significantly higher than that in A. fumigatus (P < 0.05). This higher-level production may contribute to AMB resistance in A. ter...
متن کامل(+)-Geodin from Aspergillus terreus.
The fungal metabolite (+)-geodin [systematic name: (2R)-methyl 5,7-dichloro-4-hydroxy-6'-methoxy-6-methyl-3,4'-dioxospiro[benzofuran-2,1'-cyclohexa-2',5'-diene]-2'-carboxylate], C(17)H(12)Cl(2)O(7), was isolated from Aspergillus terreus. The crystal structure contains two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. Molecules denoted 1 interact through O-H...O hydrogen bonds creating chains of...
متن کاملButyrolactones from Aspergillus terreus.
In the process development of lovastatin using Aspergillus terreus DRCC 152 in solid state fermentation, we have isolated a new butyrolactone-IV (3) along with the previously reported butyrolactone-I (1) and butyrolactone-II (2) produced under submerged conditions. The structure of compound 3 has been characterized as 3-hydroxy-5-[2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2(R)-2,3-dihydro-benzo[b]furan- 5 yl...
