Selective quantitative determination of tobramycin from fermentation broth.

Acta Microbiol Hung

Published: December 1988

A derivative of Rhizobium meliloti 41 was constructed (strain GY654) which was resistant to apramycin and kanamycin but remained sensitive to tobramycin. Strain GY654 selectively measures tobramycin and 6"-O-carbamoyltobramycin in the presence of apramycin, kanamycin and 6"-O-carbamoylkanamycin B, therefore it is suitable for the rapid quantitation of 6"-O-carbamoyltobramycin and tobramycin in fermentation broths of Streptomyces tenebrarius and solvents containing antibiotic mixtures.

Improving the production of carbamoyltobramycin by an industrial Streptoalloteichus tenebrarius through metabolic engineering.

Tobramycin is an essential and extensively used broad-spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic obtained through alkaline hydrolysis of carbamoyltobramycin, one of the fermentation products of Streptoalloteichus tenebrarius. To simplify the composition of fermentation products from industrial strain, the main byproduct apramycin was blocked by gene disruption and constructed a mutant mainly producing carbamoyltobramycin. The generation of antibiotics is significantly affected by the secondary metabolism of actinomycetes which could be controlled by modifying the pathway-specific regulatory proteins within the cluster.

The food industry has been developing new products with health benefits, extended shelf life, and without chemical preservation. Bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains have been evaluated for food fermentation to prevent contamination and increase shelf life. In this study, potentially probiotic LAB strains, Lactiplantibacillus (Lb.

The genus is known to harbor numerous biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) of potential utility in synthetic biology applications. However, it is often difficult to link uncharacterized BGCs with the secondary metabolites they produce. Proteomining refers to the strategy of identifying active BGCs by correlating changes in protein expression with the production of secondary metabolites of interest.
