چکیده
The structure of ekatetrone has been determined from physico-chemical data obtained using the natural compound, its derivatives and products of degradation reactions. Ekatetrone was found to be the lactone of 1,8-dihydroxy-2-(1'-hydroxy-2'-carbamoyl)ethyl-9,10-anthraquinone-3-acetic acid (I). It is proposed that ekatetrone is related, biogenetically, to protetrone.

Evidence for the Essential Arginine and Histidine Residues in Catalytic Activity of Glucose 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase from Streptomyces aureofaciens
Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) was purified from Streptomyces aureofaciens and inactivated with butanedione and diethylpyrocarbonate. Incubation of the enzyme with butanedione resulted in a rapid activity loss (80%) within 5 min, followed by a slow phase using a molar ratio to enzyme concentration of 100. Fluorescence studies showed a conformational change in the butanedione-modified ...

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) from Streptomyces aureofaciens was purified and denatured in 6 M urea. Denaturation led to complete dissociation of the enzyme into its inactive monomers, 98% loss of the enzyme activity, about 30% decrease in the protein fluorescence and a 10 nm red shift in the emission maximum. Dilution of urea-denatured enzyme resulted in regaining of the enzyme acti...

متن کاملThe gene cluster aur1 for the angucycline antibiotic auricin is located on a large linear plasmid pSA3239 in Streptomyces aureofaciens CCM 3239.
We previously identified a polyketide synthase gene cluster, aur1, responsible for the production of the angucycline antibiotic auricin in Streptomyces aureofaciens CCM 3239. A sequence analysis of the aur1 flanking regions revealed the presence of several genes encoding proteins homologous to those for Streptomyces linear plasmid replication, partitioning and telomere-binding. Pulse-field gel ...
