Clinical features and imaging findings of maxillo-mandibular actinomycosis are similar to those of intraosseous carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to clarify the characteristics of the imaging findings for screening of maxillo-mandibular actinomycosis using CT and Auxotrophic mutants of the actinomycete Amycolatopsis methanolica requiring l-Phe or l-Tyr were isolated and identified as strains lacking prephenate dehydratase (strain GH71) or arogenate dehydrogenase (strain GH70), respectively. A. methanolica thus employs single pathways only for the
p-Coumaric acid (p-CA) is a bioactive natural product and an important industrial material for pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals. It can be synthesized from deamination of L-tyrosine by tyrosine ammonia lyase (TAL). In this work, we discovered two aromatic amino acid lyase genes, Sas-tal and
Tyrosine ammonia lyase catalyzes the deamination of L: -tyrosine to trans-coumaric acid. A novel tyrosine ammonia lyase-encoding gene, bagA, was cloned and sequenced from bagremycins-producing strain Streptomyces sp. Tü 4128 whose protein product contains a Ala-Ser-Gly segment in the active site.
A scheme has been developed for the identification of thermophilic actinomycetes associated with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Eighty strains, 10 Micropolyspora faeni, 6 Saccharomonospora viridis, 52 Thermoactinomyces candidus, 7 T. vulgaris, 4 T. sacchari, and 1 T. dichotomica, either isolated from
Tyrosine ammonia lyase (TAL) catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine to p-coumaric acid using a 3,5-dihydro-5-methylidene-4H-imidazole-4-one (MIO) prosthetic group. In bacteria, TAL is used for production of the photoactive yellow protein chromophore and for caffeic acid biosynthesis in certain
Exploration of actinomycetes for isolation of natural products for abrogating TRAIL resistance led to the isolation of two new tyrosine derivatives (1 and 2) along with novobiocin (3). The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by spectroscopic methods, while the absolute configuration was determined
The repression of alkaline protease synthesis from alkaliphilic actinomycete was studied by using glucose, peptone, yeast extract, KH2PO4 and amino acids; tyrosine, tryptophan, lysine, and arginine. There was a critical limit of stimulation of enzyme production by these components. Crude components
A system has been developed for the identification of aerobic actinomycetes in the clinical laboratory based on analysis of whole cells for diaminopimelic acid and carbohydrates and on the ability of the organism to decompose casein, tyrosine, and xanthine media. The whole-cell analyses were
The saccharomicins A and B, produced by the actinomycete Saccharothrix espanaensis, are oligosaccharide antibiotics. They consist of 17 monosaccharide units and the unique aglycon N-(m,p-dihydroxycinnamoyl)taurine. To investigate candidate genes responsible for the formation of
For production of genistein from N-acetylcysteamine-attached p-coumarate (p-coumaroyl-NAC) supplemented to the medium, a chalcone synthase (CHS) gene from Glycyrrhiza echinata, a chalcone isomerase (CHI) gene from Pueraria lobata, and an isoflavone synthase (IFS) gene from G. echinata were placed
The mangrove ecosystem is a largely unexplored source for actinomycetes with the potential to produce biologically active secondary metabolites. Consequently, we set out to isolate, characterize and screen actinomycetes from soil and plant material collected from eight mangrove sites in China. Over
Actinomycetes are a group of gram-positive bacteria that includes pathogenic mycobacterial species, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. These organisms do not have glutathione and instead utilize the small molecule mycothiol (MSH) as their primary reducing agent and for the detoxification of
The K-26 family of bacterial secondary metabolites are N-modified tripeptides terminated by an unusual phosphonate analog of tyrosine. These natural products, produced via three different actinomycetales, are potent inhibitors of human angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE). Herein we investigate the
