Cytotoxic Anthracycline Metabolites from a Recombinant Streptomyces
16 May 2018
Abstract excerpt
The C7 (C9 or C10)- O - l- rhodosamine-bearing anthracycline antibiotic cytorhodins and their biosynthetic intermediates were recently isolated from Streptomyces sp. SCSIO 1666. Cosmid p17C4 from the Streptomyces lydicus genomic library, which harbors both the biosynthetic genes for l- rhodinose (or 2-deoxy- l -fucose) and its glycosyltransferase (encoded by slgG), was introduced into SCSIO 1666 to yield the...
