Genome sequence of an industrial microorganism <i>Streptomyces avermitilis</i> : Deducing the ability of producing secondary metabolites
25 Sept 2001
Abstract excerpt
Streptomyces avermitilis is a soil bacterium that carries out not only a complex morphological differentiation but also the production of secondary metabolites, one of which, avermectin, is commercially important in human and veterinary medicine. The major interest in this genus Streptomyces is the diversity of its production of secondary metabolites as an industrial microorganism. A major factor in its...
