RESUMO

Banerjee, Arun B. (University of Calcutta, Calcutta, India), and S. K. Bose. Biosynthesis of mycobacillin, a new antifungal peptide. II. Relation between streptomycin dependence and biosynthesis. J. Bacteriol. 87:1402–1405. 1964.—A streptomycin-dependent variant was isolated by a single-step mutation process from a strain of Bacillus subtilis capable of producing mycobacillin, a cyclic polypeptide antifungal antibiotic. Streptomycin inhibited the growth of this variant in concentrations exceeding the optimal level. Studies on the biosynthesis of mycobacillin and protein in this variant indicate that the two processes are different and that the deprivation of streptomycin has no effect on mycobacillin synthesis.
