Taxonomy of the antibiotic Bu-2313-producing organism. Microtetraspora caesia sp. nov.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An aerobic actinomycete strain isolated from an Indian soil sample and designated No. E864-61 was found to produce in submerged fermentation a new antibiotic complex, Bu-2313 (components A and B). Strain E864-61 forms single, pairs or chains of three to eight spores on the aerial mycelium and its aerial mass color is grayish blue-green. The cell wall of strain E864-61 contains meso-diaminopimelic acid and galactose. Strain E864-61 has been classified as a new species of the genus Microtetraspora and designated as Microtetraspora caesia sp. nov.

Antibiotic 5879 produced by Streptomyces aizunensis, identical with bicyclomycin.
In the previous paper1}, we presented a preliminary report on a new water-soluble antibiotic 5879 produced by Streptomyces No. 5879. Differences in the taxonomic properties of the strain from those of recognized species were considered to be significant enough to propose the new species Streptomyces aizunensis nov. sp. for this strain, and antibiotic 5879 was named aizumycin. This report deals ...
متن کاملProduction and biological activity of marcellomycin, an antitumor anthracycline antibiotic, and taxonomy of the producing organism.
An actinomycete, isolated from a soil sample from Ontario, Canada, was studied taxonomically and named Actinosporangium bohemicum sp. nov. strain C-36,145. This strain was found to produce a complex mixture of e-pyrromycinone glycosides having antitumor properties. Marcellomycin, a member of this complex, was selected for further study. Conditions for production of this antibiotic were develope...
متن کاملNew antitumor antibiotic, FR-900462. I. Taxonomy of the producing strain.
A new species of the genus Streptomyces, the proposed name of which is Streptomyces tokashikiensis sp. nov., is described. Soil isolate, strain No. 7124, produces a new antitumor antibiotic FR-900462. The organism is characterized by the presence of spores on the substrate hyphae. Strain No. 7124 is closely related to Streptomyces spiralis in morphological and cultural characteristics, but ther...
متن کاملSpenolimycin, a new spectinomycin-type antibiotic. I. Discovery, taxonomy and fermentation.
Spenolimycin, a new spectinomycin-type antibiotic, was discovered in the fermentation broth of a new actinomycete named Streptomyces gilvospiralis sp. nov. strain AB634D-177. Although a small amount of spectinomycin is coproduced by strain AB634D-177, the culture is different from other known spectinomycin-producing actinomycetes. Spenolimycin was obtained by conventional submerged culture in 1...
متن کاملMicrotetraspora malaysiensis sp. nov., isolated from Malaysian primary dipterocarp forest soil.
The taxonomic position of three actinomycete strains isolated from Malaysian soil was established by using a polyphasic approach. The isolates formed chains composed of four spores on the tip of sporophores branching from the aerial mycelium, and their chemotaxonomic properties were common to those of members of the family Streptosporangiaceae. These phenotypic properties as well as a phylogene...
