Abstract:Species within the actinobacterial genus Streptomyces represent one of the most gifted natural chemists in the microbial world. Their specialized metabolites attract the interest of the pharmaceutical industry as a source of novel drugs. A majority of these molecules pose an insurmountable challenge for economically justified production via chemical synthesis. Therefore, submerged fermentation-based isolation of such molecules often remains the only viable way to obtain them. This in turn fuels interest in pro… Show more
