Allosteric Modulation of the RNA Polymerase Catalytic Reaction Is an Essential Component of Transcription Control by Rifamycins

Rifamycins, the clinically important antibiotics, target bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP). A proposed mechanism in which rifamycins sterically block the extension of nascent RNA beyond three nucleotides does not alone explain why certain RNAP mutations confer resistance to some but not other rifamycins. Here we show that unlike rifampicin and rifapentin, and contradictory to the steric model, ri...

Simultaneous production and decomposition of different rifamycins during Amycolatopsis mediterranei growth in shake flask and in stirred tank bioreactor

The present work deals with the kinetics of rifamycins production and degradation by Amycolatopsis mediterranei in submerged culture using industrial medium. Cultivations were conducted in shake flasks and stirred tank bioreactor to evaluate the influence of transfer of process to higher scale on overall process kinetics and to obtain better understanding for the kinetics of rifamycins producti...

Recent Progress in the Chemistry and Biochemistry of Rifamycins

ABSTRACF The availability of a large number of natural and semisynthetic rifamycins made it possible to derive a clear relationship between structural features and activity against the target enzyme, the bacterial DNA-directed RNA polymerase (DDRP). Recent data are reported on the conformation of the active molecule in solution and on the Hansch approach for quantitative correlation between the...

Enhanced production of Rifamycins B and SV by medium supplementation with Vermiculite

Rifamycins are broad spectrum and important antibiotics used in the treatment of pathogenic diseases. They are generally produced by the fermentative cultivation of Amycolatopsis mediterranei, using submerged cultivation system. The medium composition greatly influences the antibiotic production. Trace elements are one of the major factors need to be optimized to enhance the production of rifam...
