The description and antibiotic production of Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. Geldanus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new variety of Streptomyces hygroscopicus was isolated from a Kalamazoo soil. This isolate is described and identified as var. geldanus. When fermented in preferential media it produces geldanamycin, nigericin, nocardamine, and a libanamycin-like activity. Fermentation conditions, chromatographic separation, and antimicrobial spectra of the antibiotics are given.

Scopafungin (U-29,479) is a crystalline, nonpolyenic antimicrobial agent obtained from the culture broth of Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. enhygrus var. nova UC-2397. Scopafungin inhibits, in vitro, a variety of pathogenic fungi, yeasts, and gram-positive bacteria.
متن کاملIsolation of neocopiamycin A from Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. crystallogenes, the copiamycin source.
Fermentation of Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. crystallogenes, the copiamycin source, yielded several minor components with antifungal activity. One of these minor components, neocopiamycin A, was isolated and characterized. The structure of neocopiamycin A was determined as N-demethylcopiamycin on the basis of spectroscopic evidence. The antibiotic was found to be more active against Gram-pos...

Geldanamycin, an ansamycin antibiotic that specifically inhibits heat-shock protein-90 (HSP90) and its endoplasmic reticulum homologue, glucose-regulated protein-94 (GRP94), accelerates the degradation of selected cellular proteins. We showed previously that geldanamycin inhibits maturation and transport of the epidermal growth factor receptor in addition to accelerating its degradation (Supino...
