Project description:In this study, we describe the isolation and identification of Streptomyces isolates collected from traditional medicinal plants’ rhizosphere during a campaign in Hamedan Province, Iran. Traditional medicinal plants represent a rich and unique source for the isolation of Streptomyces and new antimicrobial compounds. This strain was isolated from the rhizosphere of Helichrysum rubicundum
Project description:This project aims to discover novel bioactive compounds from Streptomyces isolated from the rhizosphere from wild medicinal plants from Hamedan province, Iran. Proteomics is used to assist in discovery and characterization of the compounds. Streptomyces isolates are grown on ISP-4 medium for three days, proteins were extracted and analysed by shotgun proteomics.
Project description:This study is aimed to isolate marine actinomycetes from sediments from Andaman and the Gulf of Thailand. All 101 marine actinomycetes were screened for anti-biofilm activity. Streptomyces sp. GKU223 showed significantly inhibited biofilm formation of S. aureus. The evaluation of supernatants of anti-biofilm activity produced by Streptomyces sp. GKU223 has been performed. Since the interaction between marine actinomycetes and biofilm forming bacteria has never been investigated, proteomic analysis has been used to identify whole cell proteins involved in anti–biofilm activity. Understanding the interaction at molecular level will lead to sustainably use for anti-biofilm producing marine actinomycetes in pharmaceutical and medicinal applications in the future.
