Genistein, a inhibitor of the progression of G$_{1}$ and G$_{2}$ phase of the mammalian cell cycle, was discovered through a unique screening system, in which effects of microbial metabolites on the cycle progression of the cultured mouse mammalian carcinoma cell were monitored by flow cytometry. The inhibitor was extracted from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. ZF10 with ethyl acetate, and purified by silica gel column chromatography and HPLC.

The competence time of Streptomyces viridochromogenes for aerial mycelium formation was determined. Within 10 hrs after spore inoculation the submerged mycelium was programed to form aerial mycelium, when the former was laid on agar plate. The white aerial mycelium was formed 17-22 hrs after the transfer. Ascorbic acid oxidizing enzyme band on native gel showed chracteristic mobility change during aerial mycelium formation. Total activity of this enzyme did not show any correlation with the differentiation. The asay condition for the crude enzyme was determined. EDTA and $FeCl_{2}$ showed stimulatory effect. Approximate ratio of oxygen consumed to ascorbic acid oxidized was 1:1.

In fermentation studies it revealed that Streptomyces sp. SMF 3001 started to synthesize extracellular alkaline protease from early exponential phase of cell growth. The biosynthesis of the alkaline protease was greatly induced by skim milk as a sola nitrogen source and further stimulation was observed under inorganic sulphur limited culture. However, it was found that the biosynthesis was apparently repressed by $NH_4^+$ and free amino acids, specially by cysteine. It was considered that the strain SMF 301 of Streptomyces sp. would produce the alkaline protease for the uptake of sulphur compounds from protein contained in the culture broth.

Transglutaminase from Streptomyces mobaraensis is an enzyme of unknown function that cross-links proteins to high molecular weight aggregates. Previously, we characterized two intrinsic transglutaminase substrates with inactivating activities against subtilisin and dispase. This report now describes a novel substrate that inhibits papain, bromelain, and trypsin. Papain was the most sensitive protease; thus, the protein was designated Streptomyces papain inhibitor (SPI). To avoid transglutaminase-mediated glutamine deamidation during culture, SPI was produced by Streptomyces mobaraensis at various growth temperatures. The best results were achieved by culturing for 30-50 h at $42^{\circ}C$, which yielded high SPI concentrations and negligibly small amounts of mature transglutaminase. Transglutaminasespecific biotinylation displayed largely unmodified glutamine and lysine residues. In contrast, purified SPI from the $28^{\circ}C$ culture lost the potential to be cross-linked, but exhibited higher inhibitory activity as indicated by a significantly lower $K_i$ (60 nM vs. 140 nM). Despite similarities in molecular mass (12 kDa) and high thermostability, SPI exhibits clear differences in comparison with all members of the wellknown family of Streptomyces subtilisin inhibitors. The neutral protein (pI of 7.3) shares sequence homology with a putative protein from Streptomyces lavendulae, whose conformation is most likely stabilized by two disulfide bridges. However, cysteine residues are not localized in the typical regions of subtilisin inhibitors. SPI and the formerly characterized dispase-inactivating substrate are unique proteins of distinct Streptomycetes such as Streptomyces mobaraensis. Along with the subtilisin inhibitory protein, they could play a crucial role in the defense of vulnerable protein layers that are solidified by transglutaminase.

Two-hundred and fifty-five strains of actinomycetes isolated from soil samples were screened for their antagonistic activities against four well-known wood decay fungi (WDF), including a brown rot fungus, Gloeophyllum trabeum and three white rot fungi Donkioporia expansa, Trametes versicolor, and Schizophyllum commune. A dual culture assay using culture media supplemented with heated or unheated culture filtrates of selected bacterial strains was used for the detection of their antimicrobial activity against four WDF. It was shown that Streptomyces atratus, S. tsukiyonensis, and Streptomyces sp. greatly inhibited the mycelial growth of the WDF tested compared with the control. To evaluate the biocontrol efficacy of S. atratus, S. tsukiyonensis, and Streptomyces sp., wood blocks of Pinus densiflora inoculated with three selected Streptomyces isolates were tested for weight loss, compression strength (perpendicular or parallel to the grain), bending strength, and chemical component changes. Of these three isolates used, Streptomyces sp. exhibited higher inhibitory activity against WDF, especially G. trabeum, as observed in mechanical and chemical change analyses. Scanning electron microscopy showed that cell walls of the wood block treated with Streptomyces strains were thicker and collapsed to a lesser extent than those of the non-treated control. Taken together, our findings indicate that Streptomyces sp. exhibits the potential to be used as a biocontrol agent for wood decay brown rot fungus that causes severe damage to coniferous woods.

항진균 활성 관련 단백질을 탐색하기 위해 미역류로부터 식물병원성 곰팡이의 생장을 저해하는 SAR01 균주를 분리하였고, FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) 분석 결과, Streptomyces sp.로 동정되었다. 방사선 조사$(^{60}Co)$를 실시한 결과, Botrytis cinerea를 포함한 5종의 식물병원성 곰팡이에 대한 항진균 활성을 소실한 SAR535 균주 외 6종의 돌연변이 균주가 유도되었다. SAR01 야생형 균주와 SAR535 돌연변이 균주의 세포내 단백질의 이차원 전기영동 분석결과, 6종의 단백질이 야생형 균주인 SAR01 균주의 세포내에만 존재하였다. 이들 6종의 단백질 중, 5종은 heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), Fe-containing superoxide dismutase II (Fe - SODII), ribosome recycling factor (RRF), 10 kD chaperonin (GroES) 및 inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPAse)와 각각 75%, 93%, 100%, 96% 및 83%의 유사성을 보였다. 이들 6종의 단백질들은 Streptomyces sp. SAR01 균주의 항진균 활성과 밀접한 관계가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

몇 가지 그람양성 세균에서 secY 유전자가 함유된 operon의 구성이 rplO(L15)-secY-adk라는 결과를 토대로 L15와 adk 유전자일부를 primer로 제작하여 Streptomyces lividans TK24에서 secY 유전자가 함유된 1.8kb 단편을 PCR로 증폭하여 얻은 후 secY 유전자를 cloning하였다. 전 단편을 sequencing하여 추론한 아미노산으로 상동성을 조사해 본 결과 Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus licheniformis, Staphylococcus carnosus, Brevibacterium flavum, Streptomyces scabies의 SecY와 각각 46%, 43%, 57%, 44%, 42%, 56%, 90%의 유사성을 보이는 것으로 나타났으며 SecY의 소수성 profile 또한 서로 유사하고 10개의 membrane spanning segment를 동일하게 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 유전자 구조도 다른 그람양성균에서와 같이 L15-SecY-Adk순 이였으며 secY 유전자의 종결코돈과 adk 유전자의 개시코돈이 한 염기를 공유하는 상태의 translational coupling 구조를 하고 있었다. 이와 같이 단백질분비에 관여하는 유전자와 ribosome 구성요소, 그리고 ATP 합성에 관여하는 요소는 세포성장에 상호 연관 작용이 있는 것으로 사료된다.

The sprA and sprB gene encoding chymotrypsin-like proteases Streptomyces griseus protease A (SGPA) and Streptomyces griseus protease B (SGPB) and the sprT gene that encodes Streptomyces griseus trypsin (SGT) were cloned from Streptomyces griseus ATCC10137 and overexpressed in Streptomyces lividans TK24 as a heterologous host. The chymotrypsin activity of tole culture broth measured with the artificial chromogenic substrate , N-succinyl-ala-ala-pro-phe-p-nitroanilide, was 10, 14 and 14 units/mg in the transformants haboring the sprA, sprB and sprD genes, respectively. The growth of S. lividans reached the maximum cell mass after 4 days of culture, yet SGPA and SGPD production started in the stationary phase of cell growth and kept increasing for up to 10 days of culture in an R2YE medium. The trypsin activity of the culture broth measured with the artificial chromogenic substrate , N-${\alpha}$-benzoyl-DL- arginine-p-nitroanilide , was 16 units/mg and SGT production started in the stationary phase of cell growth and kept increasing for up to 10 days of culture in an R2YE medium. The introduction of the sprA gene into S, lividans TK24 triggered the biosynthesis of pigmented antibiotics, actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin, and induced significant morphological changes in the colonies in Benedict, R2YE, and R1R2 media. In addition, the introduction of the sprT gene also induced morphological changes in the colony shape without affecting the antibiotic production, thereby implying that certain proteases would appear to play very important and specific roles in secondary-metabolites formation and morphological differentiation in Streptomyces.

Streptomyces somaliensis가 생산하는 phospholipase D (PLD)를 정제하기 위하여 펩티드 항체 결합 면역 친화 크로마토그래피용 칼럼을 개발하였다. 단백질 구조 예측 프로그램과 Streptomyces PLD X-선 결정구조를 참조하여, S. somaliensis PLD의 1차 구조로부터 항원특성이 높고. 표면에 위치하는 것으로 예상된 5종류의 펩티드들을 epitope로 선정한 뒤, 이에 대한 항체로 면역친화 크로마토그래피용 칼럼을 제작하였다. 배양 농축액을 칼럼에 통과시켜 정제한 활성 분획을 SDS-PAGE 및 Western blot 결과, 칼럼 종류에 따라 순수한 PLD또는 35 kDa의 단백질 불순물만을 포함하는 PLD 정제 분획을 보여 면역친화 칼럼의 높은 항원결합 특이성을 보여주었다. 그러나 수용액상에서 PLD 자체의 구조적 불안정성 때문에 정제 후 PLD의 특이적 활성 및 정제 수율은 낮았다.
