This research is performed for a biological control of Chinese cabbage clubroot, we isolated an antagonistic bacterium AC-3 against Plasmodiophora sp., causal pathogens of cabbage clubroot. The isolated strain was identified as Streptomyces sp. by culture morphology, biochemical reactions, and homology research based on l6S rDNA sequences. Streptomyces sp. AC-3 produced chitinase (9.3 units/$m\ell$) in culture broth. So Plasmodiophora sp. mycelia changed abnonnal swelling, curling and branching mycelia by Streptomyces sp. AC-3 culture. In a field infected by Plasmodiophora sp., the treatment of a organic fertilizer added 2% Streptomyces sp. AC-3 microbial inoculant, it resulted in about 50% reducing the severity of cabbage clubroot significantly on cabbage plants compared with treated organic fertilizer plants. Additional disease such as sclerotinia rot, fusarium wilt and pythium rot were also significantly reduced by the treatment of the organic fertilizer added Streptomyces sp. AC-3 microbial inoculant.

FK506, a widely used immunosuppressant, is a 23-membered polyketide macrolide that is produced by several Streptomyces species. FK506 high-yielding strain Streptomyces sp. RM7011 was developed from the discovered Streptomyces sp. KCCM 11116P by random mutagenesis in our previous study. The results of transcript expression analysis showed that the transcription levels of tcsA, B, C, and D were increased in Streptomyces sp. RM7011 by 2.1-, 3.1-, 3.3-, and 4.1-fold, respectively, compared with Streptomyces sp. KCCM 11116P. The overexpression of tcsABCD g enes in Streptomyces sp. RM7011 gave rise to approximately 2.5-fold (238.1 μg/ml) increase in the level of FK506 production compared with that of Streptomyces sp. RM7011. When vinyl pentanoate was added into the culture broth of Streptomyces sp. RM7011, the level of FK506 production was approximately 2.2-fold (207.7 μg/ml) higher than that of the unsupplemented fermentation. Furthermore, supplementing the culture broth of Streptomyces sp. RM7011 expressing tcsABCD genes with vinyl pentanoate resulted in an additional 1.7-fold improvement in the FK506 titer (498.1 μg/ml) compared with that observed under non-supplemented condition. Overall, the level of FK506 production was increased approximately 5.2-fold by engineering the supply of allylmalonyl-CoA in the high-yielding strain Streptomyces sp. RM7011, using a combination of overexpressing tcsABCD genes and adding vinyl pentanoate, as compared with Streptomyces sp. RM7011 (95.3 μg/ml). Moreover, among the three precursors analyzed, pentanoate was the most effective precursor, supporting the highest titer of FK506 in the FK506 high-yielding strain Streptomyces sp. RM7011.

To prevent large patch disease, caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG-2-2, in zoysiagrass a fungicide, Tebuconazole and three microbial agents Streptomyces sp. Burkholderia sp. and Streptomyces sp. S8 were applied in commercial turfgrass cultivation field in Sanchung, Gyeongnam, Korea. All treatments showed 50% reduced the pathogen population in thatch layer throughout the yearly cultivation period. Not only reduced the pathogen population, Tebuconazole, Streptomyces sp. Burkholderia sp. and Streptomyces sp. S8 treatment also enhanced turfgrass growth, chlorophyll and proline content. Malondialdehyde contents in each treatment was reduced from 6.2~28.9% when compared with the control. Taken together, reduction of pathogen population in soil lowered the disease incidence or severity, and allowed the turfgrass developed as normal condition. The results suggested that the selected microbial agents may use as biological control and growth promotion agents for the Zoysia turfgrass.

Cystocin is identified from the screening of Streptomyces sp GCA0001. It is isolated from the culture of streptomyces sp GCA0001. A white coloured cystocin is structurally similar to puromycin, an antibiotic produced by streptomyces albonrger. Like puromycin, cystocin possesses an antibacterial, antitumour and antiviral activity. It impairs the protein synthesis by inhibiting polypeptide chain elongation.

Studies on the glucose isomerase produced by alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2. Glucose Isomerase (E. C. 5.3.1.5) which reversibly catalyzes reaction between D-glucose and D-fructose was demonstrated in cell free extracts of alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2 isolated form soil. The maximum enzyme activity was found at glucose concentration 4(g/$\ell$) , xylose concentration 6(g/$\ell$), magnesium ion 1.0(g/$\ell$), yeast extract concentration 2.0(g/$\ell$), peptone concentration 3(g/$\ell$).

Antioxidative activity of c비ture of Streptomyces sp. BH-405 was investigated. After removal of pellets of Streptomyces sp. B BH-405, antioxidative substances were is미ated and suc$\infty$sively purified from culture of Streptomyces sp. BH-405 by by thin | layer chromatography $\pi$LC) or silica gel column chromatography. The fraction 3 obtained from ethylether fractionation of the C culture appeared highest level of anti oxidative activity as determined by thiocyanate method. Band 2 obtained by further P purification of this fraction showed higher anti oxidation level than that of same concentration of dl- $\alpha$ -tocopherol, butylated h hydroxy anisole (BHA). The band 2 showed higher rate of 1, 1.diphenyl 2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) decolorization than dl-$\alpha$-tocopherol. In the rat liver microsomes, band 2 rapidly inhibited lipid peroxidation which was initiated enzymatically by r reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) or non-enzymatically by Fenton’s reagent. Band 2 inhibited on | lipid peroxidation of mitochondria or the linoleic acid hydro peroxide induced peroxidation system. It is concluded that band 2 obtained by fractionation of Streptomyces sp. BH-405 cultivation contained antioxidants with the capacity to inhibit oxidative m modification.

To analyse proteins and gene related to antifungal activity, SAR01 strain was isolated from a brown seaweed and identified as Streptomyces sp. by FAME(fatty acid methyl ester) analysis. Antifungal activity deficient mutant(SAR535) of Streptomyces sp. SAR01 was induced by gamma radiation$({60}^Co)$. It was found that 6 specific protein spots appeared only in SAR01 by 2-D electrophoresis analysis. Among them, a protein of 10 kDa had homology of 96% with 10 kD chaperonin cpn 10 (GroES) by Basic Local Alignment Search Tool(BLAST, NCBI) analysis. SAR535 transformants into which groES was transferred by electroporation revealed antifungal activity newly similar with SAR01 It suggested that groES be supposed to be related to the antifungal activity of Streptomyces sp. SAR01.

The whole cell of alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2 which produce glucose isomerase was immobilized by entrapment method for the effective production of high fructose syrup. The highest immobilized activity was achieved when the enzyme was bound to 2% $textsc{k}$-carrageenan. Immobilized glucose isomerase the pH optimum was about pH 7.5~8.5. Immobilization of alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2 on 2% $textsc{k}$-carrageenan at 7$0^{\circ}C$ showed an increase in glucose isomerase activity. GI activity of immobilized cells was maximum Co2+ concentration 10-3M, Mg2+ concentration 10-3M.

To search for a compound inhibiting the petunia callus growth from Streptomyces sp., we investigated the activity in the culture broth of 400 strains. The active compound was successively purified with solvent fractionation, silica gel column chromatography from Streptomyces sp. 9602 strain, and identified as 2, 5, 7-trihydroxy-3-(5'-hydroxyhexyl)-1, 4-naphthoquinone by 1H-NMR, EI-MS, IR and UV. It inhibited the callus growth of petunia by 50% at $32\mu\textrm{g}$/mL.
