This article reviews the developments related to Streptomyces chitinases regulation and their post translational modifications. Chitinases are enzymes which cleave chitin, a polymer of N-acetylglucosamine to its monomer.

Strategy for the identification of micro-organisms producing food and feed products : bacteria producing food enzymes as study case [PDF]
Recent European regulations require safety assessments of food enzymes (FE) before their commercialization. FE are mainly produced by micro-organisms, whose viable strains nor associated DNA can be present in the final products.

An experimental evaluation of a loop versus a reference design for two-channel microarrays [PDF]
Motivation: Despite theoretical arguments that socalled "loop designs" of two-channel DNA microarray experiments are more efficient, biologists keep on using "reference designs".

Streptomyces alkaliterrae sp. nov., isolated from an alkaline soil, and emended descriptions of Streptomyces alkaliphilus, Streptomyces calidiresistens and Streptomyces durbertensis [PDF]
A polyphasic study was undertaken to establish the taxonomic position of six representative streptomycetes isolated from an alkaline soil adjacent to a meteoric alkaline soda lake in India. Chemotaxonomic, cultural and morphological properties of the isolates were consistent with their classification in the genus Streptomyces.

A novel streptomycete strain, designated XY25T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil in an alfalfa field in Jingyang, Shanxi, China. The isolate showed optimal growth at 37 °C, and was capable of growing at pH 6-10 and in the presence of 0-6 % (w/v) NaCl.

ParA and ParB coordinate chromosome segregation with cell elongation and division during Streptomyces sporulation [PDF]
In unicellular bacteria, the ParA and ParB proteins segregate chromosomes and coordinate this process with cell division and chromosome replication. During sporulation of mycelial Streptomyces, ParA and ParB uniformly distribute multiple chromosomes ...

Penicillin-binding proteins of protoplast and sporoplast membranes of Streptomyces griseus strains [PDF]
Membrane-bound penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of two Streptomyces griseus strains that sporulate well in liquid and solid medium have been investigated during the course of their life-cycle.
