Abstract:
All bactericidal antibiotics were recently proposed to kill by inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, causing destabilization of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters and generating Fenton chemistry. We find that the ROS response is dispensable upon treatment with bactericidal antibiotics. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Fe-S clusters are required for killing only by aminoglycosides. In contrast to cells, using the major Fe-S cluster biosynthesis machinery, ISC, cells using the alternative machinery, SUF, cannot efficiently mature respiratory complexes I and II, resulting in impendence of t

In particular, parallel pathways have been shown to be common and widespread in AG biosynthesis, highlighting nature’s ingenuity in accessing diverse natural products from a limited set of genes.

Abstract:
Tobramycin is a broad-spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic agent. The compound is obtained from the base-catalyzed hydrolysis of carbamoyltobramycin (CTB), which is naturally produced by the actinomycete Streptoalloteichus tenebrarius. However, the strain uses the same precursors to synthesize several structurally related aminoglycosides. Consequently, the production yields of tobramycin are low, and the compound’s purification is very challenging, costly, and time-consuming. In this study, the production of the main undesired product, apramycin, in the industrial isolate Streptoalloteichus tene

Abstract:
ABSTRACT We determined the complete genome sequence of Streptomyces griseus IFO 13350, a soil bacterium producing an antituberculosis agent, streptomycin, which is the first aminoglycoside antibiotic, discovered more than 60 years ago. The linear chromosome consists of 8,545,929 base pairs (bp), with an average G+C content of 72.2%, predicting 7,138 open reading frames, six rRNA operons (16S-23S-5S), and 66 tRNA genes. It contains extremely long terminal inverted repeats (TIRs) of 132,910 bp each. The telomere's nucleotide sequence and secondary structure, consisting of several palindromes wit

Abstract:
Abstract Cyocloheximide resistant lethal (crl) mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, defining 22 unlinked complementation groups, are unable to grow at 37 degrees. They are also highly pleiotropic at their permissive temperature of 25 degrees. The mutants are all unable to arrest at the G1 stage of the cell cycle when grown to stationary phase or when starved for a single amino acid, though they do arrest at G1 when deprived of all nitrogen. The crl mutants are also hypersensitive to various amino acid analogs and to 3-aminotriazole. These mutants also "tighten" leaky auxotrophic mutations that

Abstract:
Microbial biofilms are considerably more resistant to antibiotics than planktonic cells. It has been reported that chitosan coupling with the aminoglycoside antibiotic streptomycin dramatically disrupted biofilms of several Gram-positive bacteria. This finding suggested the application of the covalent conjugate of antimicrobial natural polysaccharides and antibiotics on anti-infection therapy. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of the chitosan-streptomycin conjugate (CS-Strep) remains unclear and the poor water-solubility of the conjugate might restrict its applications for anti-infec

Abstract 2-Deoxy-scyllo-inosose (2DOI, [2S,3R,4S,5R]-2,3,4,5-tetrahydroxycyclohexan-1-one) is a biosynthetic intermediate of 2-deoxystreptamine-containing aminoglycoside antibiotics, including butirosin, kanamycin, and neomycin. In producer microorganisms, 2DOI is constructed from d-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) by 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose synthase (DOIS) with the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). 2DOI is also known as a sustainable biomaterial for production of aromatic compounds and a chiral cyclohexane synthon.

Abstract:
Secreted polysaccharides are important functional and structural components of bacterial biofilms. The opportunistic pathogenPseudomonas aeruginosaproduces the cationic exopolysaccharide Pel, which protects bacteria from aminoglycoside antibiotics and contributes to biofilm architecture through ionic interactions with extracellular DNA. A bioinformatics analysis of genome databases suggests that gene clusters for Pel biosynthesis are present in >125 bacterial species, yet little is known about how this biofilm exopolysaccharide is synthesized and exported from the cell.

Abstract:
The adjacent genes strR–strA–strB1 lie within the large cluster of genes of streptomycin biosynthesis and resistance in Streptomyces griseus. sirR encodes a pathway-specific activator StrR, suggested by previous work to be either an antiterminator or a conventional activator, binding to its DNA target via a helix-turn-helix motif. strB1 is transcribed in an StrR-dependent fashion from a promoter (PstrB1) that lies downstream from strA; between PstrB1 and sirB1 there is a 300-bp leader region containing numerous inverted repeats that could represent modulatable transcription termination sites.
