چکیده
During the course of screening for new antibiotics, a Streptomyces strain A-14317 isolated from a soil sample collected at Ito-gun, Wakayama Prefecture was found to produce an antibiotic AB-74,x' related to destomycin C, together with neomycins A, B, C and hygromycin B. On the basis of morphological and physiological characteristics of strain A-14317, the organism was considered a new species and designated as Streptomyces aquacanus A-14317. Taxonomic studies were generally carried out in accordance with methods adopted by the International Streptomyces Project.") A detailed characterization of the new taxon is as follows:

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 کاملPhylogenetics of an antibiotic producing Streptomyces strain isolated from soil
Traditional methods of species classification and identification of the organism are based on morphological, physiological, biochemical, developmental and nutritional characteristics. Accurate assignment of taxonomic status to the new biologically active microbial isolates through existing bioinformatics methods is now very essential and also helpful in chemical characterization of the active m...

A highly potent secondary metabolite producing actinomycetes strain is isolated from marine soil sediments of Visakhapatnam sea coast, Bay of Bengal. Over all ten strains are isolated from the collected soil sediments. Among the ten actinomycetes strains the broad spectrum strain RSPSN2 was selected for molecular characterization, antibiotic production and its purification. The nucleotide seque...
متن کاملStreptomyces spadicogriseus, a new species producing anthramycin.
The taxonomic description of Streptomyces spadicogriseus, a new species belonging to the Gray Series of streptomycetes as classified by Pridham and Tresner, is presented. This new species is distinguishable from the known members of the Gray Series. Streptomyces spadicogriseus produces anthramycin but bears no taxonomic relation to the known producer of the antibiotic: S. refuineus var. thermot...
متن کاملLeinamycin, a new antitumor antibiotic from Streptomyces: producing organism, fermentation and isolation.
Leinamycin (DC 107) is newly discovered antitumor antibiotic with an unusual 1,3-dioxo-1,2-dithiolane structure. Five different producing strains were isolated from soils collected in Japan during 1985-1988 and were taxonomically assigned as Streptomyces. Fermentation studies indicate: Leinamycin was unstable in culture broth. A chemically defined medium could be designed for a preferable produ...
