Identification and characterization of Streptomyces flavogriseus NJ-4 as a novel producer of actinomycin D and holomycin [PDF]
This paper is the first public report that Streptomyces flavogriseus can produce both actinomycin D and holomycin. The actinomycete strain NJ-4 isolated from the soil of Nanjing Agricultural University was identified as S. flavogriseus.

Identification and application of a strong bidirectional acmN2p promoter from actinomycin D-producing streptomycetes [PDF]
Natural product biosynthesis is controlled at multiple levels. Characterization of naturally occurring promoters has facilitated the study of the synthetic biology of natural products. Herein, we report the discovery of two high-yield actinomycin D (ActD)

Functional disruption of the Golgi apparatus protein ARF1 sensitizes MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells to the antitumor drugs Actinomycin D and Vinblastine through ERK and AKT signaling. [PDF]
Increasing evidence indicates that the Golgi apparatus plays active roles in cancer, but a comprehensive understanding of its functions in the oncogenic transformation has not yet emerged.

Actinomycin D Targets NPM1c-Primed Mitochondria to Restore PML-Driven Senescence in AML Therapy. [PDF]
Oncogenic NPM1c mutations prime acute myeloid leukemia cells for mitochondrial targeting by actinomycin D, which restores PML nuclear bodies—driven senescence and is synergistic with venetoclax to induce tumor clearance.

Inhibiting transcription in cultured metazoan cells with actinomycin D to monitor mRNA turnover. [PDF]
Decay of transcribed mRNA is a key determinant of steady state mRNA levels in cells. Global analysis of mRNA decay in cultured cells has revealed amazing heterogeneity in rates of decay under normal growth conditions, with calculated half-lives ranging ...

mRNA Stability Assay Using transcription inhibition by Actinomycin D in Mouse Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]
Gene expression is regulated through multiple steps at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. The net abundance of mature mRNA species in cells is determined by the balance between transcription and degradation.
