6-alpha-Hydroxy-7-deoxy-10-deacetylbaccatin-III is an intermediate that is potentially useful for synthesis of analogues of paclitaxel. Screening of microbial strains identified an enzyme activity in Nocardioides luteus SC 13912 (A.T.C.C. 55426) which converted 7-deoxy-10-deacetylbaccatin-III into 6-hydroxy-7-deoxy-10-deacetylbaccatin-III with a maximum yield of 44%.

Strain KC13, a novel desert-adapted, non-motile, Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterium, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the Karakum Desert, Turkmenistan and characterised by a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA sequences revealed that strain KC13 was a member of the genus Nocardioides, and formed a distinct cluster with Nocardioides luteus DSM 43366 (99.3% sequence identity), Nocardioides albus DSM 43109 (98.

An actinobacterial strain, designated A5X3R13, was isolated from a compost soil suspension supplemented with extracellular material from a -culture supernatant. The strain was cultured on tenfold-diluted reasoner's 2A agar. The cells were ovoid-to-rod shaped, non-motile, Gram-stain-positive, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive and had a width of 0.

Introduction: Detection of new is significant to discover new antibiotics because development of new antibiotics is connected to the characterization of novel bacterial taxa. This study has focused on the identification and isolation of antibiotic-producing from the sediment and the water of Ma'in thermal springs (48-59°C) situated in the center area of Jordan.
Methods: Samples of sediment and water were transferred to glucose yeast malt agar medium and were cultivated, isolated and identified according to scanning electron microscopy and 16S rRNA gene analysis.

A Gram-reaction-positive, aerobic, non-spore-forming, rod- or coccoid-shaped, strain, CD40127(T), was isolated from a green biofilm covering the wall of the Domitilla Catacombs in Rome, Italy. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain CD40127(T) belongs to the genus Nocardioides, closely related to Nocardioides luteus DSM 43366(T) and Nocardioides albus DSM 43109(T) with 98.86 % and 98.
