Abstract excerpt
Mutants defective in the synthesis of antitumor angucycline antibiotic landomycin E were obtained from the asporogenic and initial sporulating strains of Streptomyces globisporus 1912 by means of nitrosoguanidine treatment and UV-irradiation of the mycelium fragments and protoplasts. The frequency of induction of LanE mutants in the protoplasts of strain 3-1 was 3 times higher (0.55%) as compared to mycelium...
