Cystathionine gamma-lyase (EC 4.4.1.1) was purified from Streptomyces cattleya, an actinomycete which produces the unusual beta-lactam antibiotic thienamycin. The enzyme displays broad substrate specificity and is similar to gamma-lyases purified from other microorganisms. That the gamma-lyase
Three diterpene synthases from actinomycetes have been studied. The first enzyme from Streptomyces cattleya produced the novel compound cattleyene. The other two enzymes from Nocardia testacea and Nocardia rhamnosiphila were identified as phomopsene synthases. The cyclisation mechanism of cattleyene
Delta-1-Piperideine-6-carboxylate (P6C) dehydrogenase activity, which catalyses the conversion of P6C into alpha-aminoadipic acid, has been studied in the cephamycin C producer Streptomyces clavuligerus by both spectrophotometric and radiometric assays. The enzyme has been purified 124-fold to
Fluorination has been widely used in chemical synthesis, but is rare in nature. The only known biological fluorination scope is represented by the fl pathway from Streptomyces cattleya that produces fluoroacetate (FAc) and 4-fluorothreonine (4-FT). Here we report the identification of a novel
Selectively fluorinated compounds are found frequently in pharmaceutical and agrochemical products where currently 25-30% of optimized compounds emerge from development containing at least one fluorine atom. There are many methods for site specific introduction of fluorine, but all are chemical and
A total of 354 isolates of actinomycetes, of which 76 were detected cytotoxic activity was isolated from near-shore marine samples collected at Wenchang mangrove, DanZhou harbor and YanPu harbor. Four isolation methods were employed, which are SDS pretreatment, phenol pretreatment, heating
Fluorinated compounds are finding increasing uses in several applications. They are employed in almost all areas of modern society. These compounds are all produced by chemical synthesis and their abundance highly contrasts with fluorinated molecules of natural origin. To date, only some plants and
