Bioprospecting Deep-Sea Actinobacteria for Novel Anti-infective Natural Products [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The global prevalence of drug resistance has created an urgent need for the discovery of novel anti-infective drugs. The major source of antibiotics in current clinical practice is terrestrial actinobacteria; the less-exploited deep-sea actinobacteria ...

In silico genomic mining reveals unexplored bioactive potential of rare actinobacteria isolated from Egyptian soil [PDF]

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2019
Background Antibiotic resistance occurs rapidly and naturally. However, the misuse of antibiotics is accelerating the process. And therefore, exploring new antibiotics has been a great demand in order to save people’s life.

Exploring Actinobacteria Associated With Rhizosphere and Endosphere of the Native Alpine Medicinal Plant Leontopodium nivale Subspecies alpinum [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The rhizosphere of plants is enriched in nutrients facilitating growth of microorganisms, some of which are recruited as endophytes. Endophytes, especially Actinobacteria, are known to produce a plethora of bioactive compounds.

Biosynthetic novelty index reveals the metabolic potential of rare actinobacteria isolated from highly oligotrophic sediments. [PDF]

Microb Genom, 2023
Calculations predict that testing of 5 000–10 000 molecules and >1 billion US dollars (£0.8 billion, £1=$1.2) are required for one single drug to come to the market. A solution to this problem is to establish more efficient protocols that reduce the high rate of re-isolation and continuous rediscovery of natural products during early stages of the ...
