1962. iMyo-inositol, especially in combination with arginine, enhances streptomycin production. Compounds which show structural relationship with myo-inositol are ineffective. Myo-inositol decreases the incorporation of CI4-glucose into streptomycin, particularly into streptidine. This effect suggests that myo-inositol is a precursor of the streptidine ring. Methionine stimulates antibiotic production in a synthetic medium but proves to be unfavorable in a complex medium. The y-and S-isomers of hexachlorocyclohexane inihibit streptomycin formation. The formation of streptomycin by washed mycelium was studied. Essentially the same results were here obtained as with growing cultures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
