Streptomyces griseus strain XylebKG-1 is an insect-associated strain of the well-studied actinobacterial species S. griseus. Here, we present the genome of XylebKG-1 and discuss its similarity to the genome of S. griseus subsp. griseus NBRC13350. XylebKG-1 was isolated from the fungus-cultivating Xyleborinus saxesenii system. Given its similarity to free-living S. griseus subsp. griseus NBRC133...

introduction: streptomyces species are mycelial, aerobic gram-positive bacteria that are isolated from soil and produce a diverse range of antibiotics. streptomyces griseus produces the antibiotic, streptomycin and forms spores even in a liquid culture. the gene cluster for the production of streptomycin antibiotic contains strr gene that encodes strr, a pathway-specific regulator. then, this p...

Streptomyces griseus was cultured in three different bioreactors in a medium containing chitin flakes. When a conventional bioreactor stirred by two sets of Rushton impellers and operated at high speed was used, the yield of streptomycin (3.1 mg/l) was the highest observed and occurred at approximately 500 hours. Cultivation of S. griseus in a bioreactor stirred at low speed by a U-shaped paddl...

Specific inhibitors of Cytochrome P4502C9 enzyme (CYP2C9) viz. clopidogrel, fenofibrate fluvoxamine and sertraline at concentration of 50, 100, 150 and 200 µM were employed to investigate the nature of enzyme involved in bioconversion of meloxicam to its main metabolite 5-OH methyl meloxicam by Cunninghamella blakesleeana. Virtual screening for interaction of specific CYP2C9 inhibitors with hum...

Ability of biocontrol agent Streptomyces griseus to control the F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. (FOL) induced fusarium wilt disease in tomato was studied. Talc-based formulation of Streptomyces griseus either single or with or without chitin were developed and tested under greenhouse conditions. Self life of S. griseus in talk based formulation showed stable up to 105 day with 122 x 10 , 118 x...

The streptomycin (SM) gene cluster was investigated for its distribution in streptomycetes by Southern hybridization using nick-translated DNA probes, which were isolated from the SM-6-phosphotransferase (SPH) and amidinotransferase (ADT) regions of the SM gene cluster of Streptomyces griseus SS-1198. Bgl II-digested genomic DNAs from SM-producing strains of S. griseus yielded the same size fra...

The pharmacokinetic profile of the new nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug meloxicam was investigated in a number of animal species, including mice, rats, dogs, mini-pigs, and baboons, after administration of [14C]meloxicam. The plasma concentration-time profiles for meloxicam in rats and dogs were comparable to that in humans, whereas there were marked differences between humans and mice, mini...

A new antibiotic-producing Streptomyces strain SK2-52 obtained by a protoplast fusion treatment between Streptomyces griseus NP1-1 and S. tenjimariensis NM16 showed taxonomical features identical with those of S. griseus. The strain resistant to wider range of aminoglycoside antibiotics than the parental strains. This multiple resistance corresponded to the activities of streptomycin kinase and...
