Identification and characterization of soil-isolated Streptomyces SJE177 producing actinomycin.

چکیده
One hundred seventy-seven actinomycetes strains were isolated from soils collected from fruit orchards in Thailand. All were tested for antibacterial activity against seven pathogenic bacteria using co-cultivation methods. Forty strains (22.6%) were active against at least one indicator bacteria. Twenty-seven strains (15.3%) inhibited only gram-positive bacteria, four strains (2.3%) inhibited only gram-negative bacteria, and nine strains (5.1%) showed activity against both. Strain SJE177 had potent activity against all tested bacteria, and was selected for further investigation. A crude ethyl acetate extract of this strain retained inhibitory activity as tested by disk-diffusion method. Analysis of morphological and biochemical characteristics and the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated this strain belonged to the genus Streptomyces. The strain formed a monophyletic line in a phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences with other Streptomyces reference strains. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed SJE177 produced actinomycin. Since many isolates showed inhibitory activity against indicator bacteria, these results suggest Thai soil could be an interesting source to explore for antibacterial substances.

Production of actinomycin-D by the mutant of a new isolate of Streptomyces sindenensis
An actinomycin-D producing strain was isolated from soil and characterized as Streptomyces sindenensis. The culture was subjected to UV irradiation and a mutant with 400% higher actinomycin-D production was isolated (400 mg/l(-1) as compared to 80 mg/l(-1) produced by the parent). Production medium was optimized and antibiotic yield with the mutant was enhanced to 850 mg/l(-1) which is 963% hig...

متن کاملCharacterization of Streptomyces padanus JAU4234, a producer of actinomycin X₂, fungichromin, and a new polyene macrolide antibiotic.
Strain JAU4234, identified as Streptomyces padanus, was isolated from soil collected in Jiangxi Province, China. It produced actinomycin X2, fungichromin, and a new polyene macrolide compound with antifungal activity, antifungalmycin 702. Antifungalmycin 702 had good general antifungal activity and may have potential future agricultural and/or clinical applications.
