Formobactin, a novel free radical scavenging and neuronal cell protecting substance from Nocardia sp.
Formobactin, a new free radical scavenger, was isolated from the culture of Nocardia sp. strain ND20. The structure of formobactin was determined to be a member of the nocobactin group antibiotics. Formobactin inhibited lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenate. Formobactin also showed the activity to suppress L-glutamate toxicity in neuronal hybridoma N18-RE-105 cells.

acting as a major neurotransmitter in the brain, increases after brain ischemic attack1>2). In addition, neuronal cell death is suggested to be related to excessive excitement of glutamate receptors and inhibition of the uptake of cystine, a precursor of glutathione which is the major reducing substance in the cells3'4). Therefore, antagonists for glutamate receptors and radical scavengers may ...
متن کاملAnalysis of xysA, a gene from Streptomyces halstedii JM8 that encodes a 45-kilodalton modular xylanase, Xys1.
The gene xysA from Streptomyces halstedii JM8 encodes a protein of 461 amino acids (Xys1) which is secreted into the culture supernatant as a protein of 45 kDa (Xys1L). Later, this form is proteolytically processed after residue D-362 to produce the protein Xys1S, which conserves the same xylanolytic activity. The cleavage removes a domain of 99 amino acids that shows similarity to bacterial ce...
متن کاملAL072, a novel anti-Legionella antibiotic produced by Streptomyces sp.
AL072 is a potent anti-Legionella antibiotic produced by Streptomyces strain AL91. The compound was isolated from the fermentation broth with 1 volume of isopropyl alcohol, followed by an ethyl acetate extraction and subsequent concentration under reduced pressure. Purification was performed on an octadecyl silica gel column followed by preparative HPLC. AL072 purified as mentioned above showed...
متن کاملNovel neuronal neurotransmitter-specific cell-surface molecules.
Neuronal cell-surface molecules are an important group of membrane structures which include neurotransmitter receptor proteins [ 1 , 21, neurotransmitter transporters [3, 41 and a heterogeneous group of proteins involved in neuronal development [ 5, 61 and in the formation and maintenance of synaptic contacts [7]. The use of antibodies has provided a successful approach to the identification an...
