Here, we show the draft genome sequence of Streptomyces sp. F1, a strain isolated from soil with great potential for secretion of hydrolytic enzymes used to deconstruct cellulosic biomass. The draft genome assembly of Streptomyces sp. strain F1 has 69 contigs with a total genome size of 8,142,296bp and G+C 72.65%. Preliminary genome analysis identified 175 proteins as Carbohydrate-Active Enzyme...

marine streptomyces are prolific producers of majority of bioactive secondary metabolites which are used in pharmaceutical industry as effective drugs against life threatening diseases. the cytotoxic activity of the pure compound 1, 2- benzene dicarboxylic acid, mono 2- ethylhexyl ester (dmehe) from marine derived actinomycete streptomyces sp. vitsjk8 was investigated against mouse embryonic fi...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In the present study, isolation of Streptomyces associated with marine sponges and its bioactive potential against fish and shellfish pathogens were assessed. The Streptomyces sp. were isolated from the marine sponges namely Callyspongia diffusa, Mycale mytilorum, Tedania anhelans and Dysidea fragilis collected from Vizhinjam port, situated in the South-West coast of I...

An actinomycete strain with a great potential to produce bioactive compounds isolated from a laterite soil was identified as Streptomyces sp. MSL based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Secondary metabolites produced by the strain in optimized nutrient broth were extracted and analyzed by chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. Among the different fractions, four diols, viz., (1) (2R,3R)-2,3...

From the ethyl acetate extract of the strain Streptomyces sp. isolate GW23/1540, besides 16 known products, several 1H-quinazolin-4-one derivatives were isolated. (SR)-2-(1-Hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-quinazolin-4-one (4) and (RR)-2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-quinazolin-4-one (5) are new natural products. 2-Methyl-3H-quinazolin-4-one (2) and 1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione (3) ...

A new phosphorus-containing compound (1) was detected by (31)P NMR spectroscopy in Streptomyces sp. A50. Compound 1, 1(alpha)-O-methyl-2-(N-acetyl)glucoseamine-6-O-phosphate-1(alpha)-2-(N-acetyl)glucosamine, exhibited a pK(a) value around zero. The compound was found both in the extracellular culture broth and in the cells. While very low concentrations of 1 were found in the culture broth of o...

Streptomyces sp. strain 2238-SVT4 produces hatomarubigins A, B, C, and D, which belong to the angucycline family. Among them, hatomarubigin D has a unique dimeric structure with a methylene linkage. PCR using aromatase and cyclase gene-specific primers identified the hrb gene cluster for angucycline biosynthesis in Streptomyces sp. 2238-SVT4. The cluster consisted of 30 open reading frames, inc...

Streptomycetes group was studied in twenty-three soil samples of western region. The highest density of this group was found in 3 soil samples collected from AI-Madinah Al-Munawwarah. Six Streptomyces series were observed. Gray series represented the most dominant isolates. The highest antimicrobial activity was recorded in the case of gray and red series. Streptomyces MR13 (red series) had a b...

The structures and stereochemistry of OA- 6129D and E, new carbapenam compounds produced by Streptomyces sp. OA-6129, were determined by spectroscopic analysis and chemical transformation.
