Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Streptomyces, as the main source of antibiotics, has been intensively exploited for discovering new drug candidates to combat the evolving pathogens. Disruption of wblA, an actinobacteria-specific gene controlling major developmental transition, can cause the alteration of phenotype and morphology in many species of Streptomyces. One wblA homologue was found in Streptomyces ansochromogenes 7100 by...
