Proteomic analysis of the Streptomyces griseus ribosomal fraction.

Molecular cloning of tetracycline resistance genes from Streptomyces rimosus in Streptomyces griseus and characterization of the cloned genes.

Two tetracycline resistance genes of Streptomyces rimosus, an oxytetracycline producer, were cloned in Streptomyces griseus by using pOA15 as a vector plasmid. Expression of the cloned genes, designated as tetA and tetB was inducible in S. griseus as well as in the donor strain. The tetracycline resistance directed by tetA and tetB was characterized by examining the uptake of tetracycline and i...

Complete nucleotide sequence of a 16S ribosomal RNA gene from Streptomyces griseus subsp. griseus.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the 1525 bp 16S ribosomal RNA gene from the rrnE operon of Streptomyces griseus subsp. griseus KCTC9080 was determined (1). The 5' and 3' ends of the 16S rRNA were located with the combination of previous data (2,3,4) and have not been determined experimentally. The nucleotide sequence presented here was determined following the dideoxy method (5) and using M...

Oxidation of Meloxicam by Streptomyces griseus

The aim of the present investigation was to biotransform the anti-inflammatory compound meloxicam by enzymes present in whole cells of five actinomycete cultures to produce novel bioactive derivatives. Among the actinomycetes screened, Streptomyces griseus NCIM 2622 was found to possess the enzyme system(s) that oxidize meloxicam into two metabolites whereas that present in S. griseus NCIM 2623...

Isolation and characterization of a phage active against streptomyces griseus

A multilocus phylogeny of the Streptomyces griseus 16S rRNA gene clade: use of multilocus sequence analysis for streptomycete systematics.

Streptomycetes are a complex group of actinomycetes that produce diverse bioactive metabolites of commercial significance. Systematics can provide a useful framework for identifying species that may produce novel metabolites. However, previously proposed approaches to the systematics of Streptomyces have suffered from either poor interlaboratory comparability or insufficient resolution. In part...
