One of the most diverse groups of bioactive bacterial metabolites is the ribosomally synthesised and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) with different bioactivities. The process of genome mining has made it possible to predict the presence of such clusters among the huge genomic data available today. Despite the great potential of actin...

however, this effect directly depended on the particular family and genera. Two factors: redox potential (Eh) and total carbon (TC) seemed to had a significant effect on the diversity of Actinobacteria. More precisely, Actinobacteria from the NC soils displayed a greater affinity for each other and were clearly influenced by Eh, whilst those from t...

Strains isolated during composting processes of plant waste, and identified as Actinobacteria, proved to be significant producers of compounds that actively participate in the control of phytopathogens, such as those that cause Damping-off disease. Although most of the actinomycetes analyzed showed to be antagonistic strains against common phytopat...

Drought represents a major constraint for agricultural productivity and food security worldwide. Plant growth promoting actinobacteria have attracted the attention as a promising approach to enhance plant growth and yield under stressful conditions. In this regard, bioprospecting in arid and semi-arid environments could reveal uncommon bacteria wit...

The vast diversity of soil bacteria provides essential ecosystem services that support agricultural production. Variation in the diversity and composition of soil biota may have predictive values for soil nutrient cycling and resilience of ecosystem services, thus providing valuable insights to improve food production. The North China Plain (NCP) i...

Microbiological synthesis of 7α- and 7β-hydroxy derivatives of testololactone and testolactone was developed based on bioconversion of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) by fungus of Isaria fumosorosea VKM F-881 with subsequent modification of the obtained stereoisomers by actinobacteria. The first stage included obtaining of the stereoisomers of 3β,7(α...

A new polycyclic antibiotic, pradimicin-IRD, was isolated from actinobacteria Amycolatopsis sp. IRD-009 recovered from soil of Brazilian rainforest undergoing restoration area. This molecule is the major compound produced in solid culture media. The new compound was detected by a focused method of precursor ion (high-performance liquid chromatograp...

Sortases are cysteine transpeptidases that assemble surface proteins and pili in their cell envelope. Encoded by all Gram-positive bacteria, few Gram-negative bacteria and archaea, sortases are currently divided into six classes (A-F). Due to the steep increase in bacterial genome data in recent years, the number of sortase homologues have also esc...

BackgroundKnowledge of microbiota composition, persistence, and transmission as well as the overall function of the bacterial community is important and may be linked to honey bee health. This study aimed to investigate the inter-individual variation in the gut microbiota in honey bee larvae and pupae.ResultsIndividual larvae differed in the compos...

BackgroundAntibiotic resistance occurs rapidly and naturally. However, the misuse of antibiotics is accelerating the process. And therefore, exploring new antibiotics has been a great demand in order to save people’s life. Actinobacteria have been the major source of antibiotics. In this study, we focused on rare types of actinobacteria which are h...
