Biocatalysis, one of the oldest technologies, is becoming a favorable alternative to chemical processes and a vital part of green technology. It is an important revenue generating industry due to a global market projected at $7 billion in 2013 with a growth of 6.7% for enzymes alone. Some microbes are important sources of enzymes and are preferred over sources of plant and animal origin. As a result, more than 50% of the industrial enzymes are obtained from bacteria. The constant search for novel enzymes with robust characteristics has led to improvisations in the industrial processes, which is the key for profit growth. Actinomycetes constitute a significant component of the microbial population in most soils and can produce extracellular enzymes which can decompose various materials. Their enzymes are more attractive than enzymes from other sources because of their high stability and unusual substrate specificity. Actinomycetes found in extreme habitats produce novel enzymes with huge commercial potential. This review attempts to highlight the global importance of enzymes and extends to signify actinomycetes as promising harbingers of green technology. 1. Introduction Commercially available enzymes are derived from plants, animals, and microorganisms. The enzymes derived from Biocatalysis offers green and clean solutions to chemical plants include papain, bromelain, ficin, lipooxygenase, processes and is emerging as a challenging and reverred among several others [2], and those derived from animal alternative to chemical technology. The chemical processes sources include pepsin and renin. However, a major fraction are now carried out biologically by biocatalysts (enzymes)

  • Streptomyces Cytochrome P450 Enzymes and Their Roles in the Biosynthesis of Macrolide Therapeutic Agents
    Review Biomol Ther 27(2), 127-133 (2019) Streptomyces Cytochrome P450 Enzymes and Their Roles in the Biosynthesis of Macrolide Therapeutic Agents Myung-A Cho, Songhee Han, Young-Ran Lim, Vitchan Kim, Harim Kim and Donghak Kim,* Department of Biological Sciences, Konkuk University, Seoul 05025, Republic of Korea Abstract The study of the genus Streptomyces is of particular interest because it produces a wide array of clinically important bioactive molecules. The genomic sequencing of many Streptomyces species has revealed unusually large numbers of cytochrome P450 genes, which are involved in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Many macrolide biosynthetic pathways are catalyzed by a series of enzymes in gene clusters including polyketide and non-ribosomal peptide synthesis. In general, Streptomyces P450 enzymes accelerate the final, post-polyketide synthesis steps to enhance the structural architecture of macrolide chemistry. In this review, we discuss the major Streptomyces P450 enzymes research focused on the biosynthetic processing of macrolide therapeutic agents, with an emphasis on their biochemical mechanisms and structural insights.

Wide variety of bacteria in the environment permits screening for more efficient cellulase producing strains. The study focuses on isolation and screening of cellulase producing actinomycetes. The isolates from varied ecological habitats were subjected to primary screening. Between 80-90 % isolates were found to produce cellulase enzyme. Among the isolates tested, colonies 51, 157, 194 and NRRL B-16746 ( S. albidoflavus ) showing appreciable zones of clearance were selected for secondary screening. Enzyme activity was determined in crude and in partially purified extracts. NRRL B-16746 S. albidoflavus (1.165 U/ml/min) showed maximum activity followed by colony 194 (0.995 U/ml/min), colony 51 (0. 536 U/ml/min), colony 157 (0.515 U/ml/min) and NRRL B-1305 ( S. albogriseolus ; positive control) (0.484 U/ml/min). The taxonomic status of isolates 51,157 and 194 was studied by polyphasic approach including morphological and biochemical characterization.

Conditions caused by climate change require global efforts to be improved, but others like soil degradation demand local management. For many years, saline soils were not a problem; indeed, natural salinity shaped different biomes around the world. However, overall saline soils present adverse conditions for plant growth, which then translate into limitations for agriculture. Shortage on the surface of productive land, either due to depletion of arable land or to soil degradation, represents a threat to the growing worldwide population. Hence, the need to use degraded land leads scientists to think of recovery alternatives.

    EVALUATION OF DRIP APPLICATIONS AND FOLIAR SPRAYS OF THE BIOCONTROL PRODUCT ACTINOVATE ON POWDERY MILDEW AND OTHER FUNGAL DISEASES OF TOMATO A Thesis presented to the Faculty of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Agriculture with a Specialization in Soil Science by Therese Angelica Quintana-Jones June 2011 © 2011 Therese Angelica Quintana-Jones ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP TITLE: Evaluation of Drip Applications and Foliar Sprays of the Biocontrol Product Actinovate on Powdery Mildew and Other Fungal Diseases of Tomato AUTHOR: Therese Angelica Quintana-Jones DATE SUBMITTED: June 2011 COMMITTEE CHAIR: Dr. Lynn E. Moody, Earth and Soil Sciences Department Head COMMITTEE MEMBER: Dr. Michael Yoshimura, Biological Sciences Professor COMMITTEE MEMBER: Dr. Elizabeth Will, Soil Science Lecturer iii ABSTRACT Evaluation of Drip Applications and Foliar Sprays of the Biocontrol Product Actinovate on Powdery Mildew and Other Fungal Plant Pathogens of Tomato Therese Angelica Quintana-Jones The effectiveness of the biocontrol product Actinovate® at enhancing tomato plant growth and yield, and reducing the presence of fungal pathogens was studied in greenhouse and field conditions. In the greenhouse, no differences were found among seed germination or plant survival rates, seedling heights, dry root weights, and dry shoot weights of tomato seedlings grown from seeds drenched with Actinovate® or Rootshield®. The effects of one initial Actinovate® seed drench at sowing, repeated applications through the drip irrigation throughout the season, or repeated applications through the drip irrigation plus foliar applications throughout the season at reducing plant infection by fungal plant pathogens, and increasing yield and quality for tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum) were investigated in Los Alamos, CA, on a sandy loam soil.
