The composition of a synthetic culture medium for levorin biosynthesis by Streptomyces levoris 99/23 was optimised using mathematical modelling methods. The optimal concentrations of the medium components were established by means of an optimum composition design at three factor variation levels. An adequate regression model was obtained. Levorin biosynthesis by Streptomyces levoris 99/23 in the optimised synthetic medium was over 38% higher than in the initial medium. The antibiotic biosynthesis dynamics in the optimised culture medium was studied by means of a non-linear differential equation system. The resultant model was valid.

are the primary source of bioactive specialized metabolites used in research and medicine, including many antimicrobials. These are presumed to be secreted and function as freely soluble compounds. However, increasing evidence suggests that extracellular vesicles are an alternative secretion system.

In recent years, much attention has been focused on the biogenesis, engineering and utilisation of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) in Gram-negative bacteria in a range of environments and niches. While the precise mechanism of biogenesis is unknown, it is focused on the modification of the Gram-negative cell wall to facilitate blebbing at sites of weakness in and around the characteristically thin peptidoglycan layer within the periplasm. Here, we investigate the biogenesis of membrane vesicles (MVs) in the Gram-positive organism Streptomyces albus S4 (Seipke et al.

We have previously shown deep-sea-derived SCSIO 5802 to produce two types of active secondary metabolites, abyssomicins and candicidins. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of SCSIO 5802 employing bioinformatics to highlight its potential to produce at least 21 categories of natural products. In order to mine novel natural products, the production of two polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs), the known 10--HSAF () and a new compound, koyanamide A (), was stimulated via inactivation of the abyssomicin and candicidin biosynthetic machineries.

Diseases caused by soilborne fungal pathogens result in significant crop yield losses and quality reduction. strain W68 is effective in controlling several soilborne fungal diseases. To identify antifungal substances critical for biocontrol activity of W68, the genome of W68 was sequenced and a linear chromosome of 6.
