Evaluation of Apple Root-Associated Endophytic Streptomyces pulveraceus Strain ES16 by an OSMAC-Assisted Metabolomics Approach [PDF]
The One Strain Many Compounds approach (OSMAC) is a powerful and comprehensive method that enables the chemo-diversity evaluation of microorganisms. This is achieved by variations of physicochemical cultivation parameters and by providing biotic and ...

Endophytic actinomycetes are a promising source of novel metabolites with diverse biological activities. Tea plants (Camellia sinensis) produce arsenals of phytochemicals, which are linked to a number of medicinal and nutritional properties. However, a systematic investigation into the abundance and diversity of cultivated actinomycetes residing in tea

Kinetic model of metabolic network for xiamenmycin biosynthetic optimisation
Xiamenmycins, a series of prenylated benzopyran compounds with anti‐fibrotic bioactivities, were isolated from a mangrove‐derived Streptomyces xiamenensis. To fulfil the requirements of pharmaceutical investigations, a high production of xiamenmycin is needed.

Novel insights into bacterial dimethylsulfoniopropionate catabolism in the East China Sea [PDF]
The compatible solute Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), made by many marine organisms, is one of Earth’s most abundant organosulfur molecules. Many marine bacteria import DMSP and can degrade it as a source of carbon and/or sulfur via DMSP cleavage or ...

A Thorough Analysis and Categorization of Bacterial Interrupted Adenylation Domains, Including Previously Unidentified Families [PDF]
Interrupted adenylation (A) domains are key to the immense structural diversity seen in the nonribosomal peptide (NRP) class of natural products (NPs). Interrupted A domains are A domains that contain within them the catalytic portion of another domain ...

From the deep sea-derived Streptomyces xiamenensis MCCC 1A01570, eight cyclic dipeptides (1–8) and five phenolics (9–13) were obtained. Cyclo-(I-Pro-D-Leu) (4) could moderately promote the gene transcriptional function of nuclear receptor RXRα, while 2, 3, and 13 showed weak reduction in RXRα gene transcriptional activities induced by 9-cis-retinoid ...

Analysis of actinobacterial biodiversity in reservoir sediment and cave soil and screening of isolates for antimycobacterial activity [PDF]
A total of 56 presumptive actinobacterial strains was isolated from three different samples taken from the Silvermine Nature Reserve (Table Mountain National Park, Cape Town), namely, cave soil, the wall of the cave and sediment from the shallow waters ...
