Title: | Biochemical basis of resistance to hygromycin B in Streptomyces hygroscopicus - the producing organism |
Authors: | Pardo, José M. CSIC ORCID ; Malpartida Romero, Francisco; Rico, Manuel CSIC; Jiménez Díaz, Antonio | Issue Date: | 1985 | Publisher: | Society for General Microbiology | Citation: | Journal of General Microbiology 131: 1289- 1298 (1985) | Abstract: | Hygromycin B, an aminocyclitol antibiotic that strongly inhibits both 70sand 80s ribosomes, is synthesized by Streptomyces hygroscopicus. Ribosomes from this Gram-positive mycelial bacterium are inhibited in vitro by the antibiotic. In contrast, the streptomycete is highly resistant to the drug in vivo since it possesses hygromycin B phosphotransferase activity. This enzyme has been shown by gel filtration to have a molecular weight of 42000,and to modify its antibiotic substrate to produce 7>-O-phosphoryl-hygromycinB which totally lacks biological activity both in vivo and in vitro. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/57242 | DOI: | 10.1099/00221287-131-6-1289 | Identifiers: | doi: 10.1099/00221287-131-6-1289 issn: 0022-1287 |
