Streptomyces olivaceus is a bacterium species from the genus of Streptomyces which has been isolated from soil. [1] [3] [4] Streptomyces olivaceus produces granaticin, elloramycin, tetroazolemycin A and tetroazolemycin B. [5] [6] [7] Streptomyces olivaceus can be used to produce vitamin B12. [8] [9]
Streptomyces is the largest genus of Actinomycetota, and the type genus of the family Streptomycetaceae. [3] Over 700 species of Streptomyces bacteria have been described. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] As with the other Actinomycetota, streptomycetes are gram-positive , and have very large genomes with high GC content .
The following is a list of Streptomyces species, organized alphabetically by species name. [1] Names that have not been validated according to the Bacteriological Code are enclosed in "quotes". As of June 2021 [update] , there are 679 valid species of Streptomyces and an additional 121 provisional species. [ 1 ]
Streptomyces isolates have yielded the majority of human, animal, and agricultural antibiotics, as well as a number of fundamental chemotherapy medicines. Streptomyces is the largest antibiotic -producing genus of Actinomycetota , producing chemotherapy, antibacterial, antifungal , antiparasitic drugs, and immunosuppressants . [ 1 ]
Streptomyces olivaceiscleroticus is a bacterium species from the genus of Streptomyces which has been isolated from soil. [1] [4] [6] See also.
Additionally, 11 conserved signature proteins have been identified which are found in all sequenced Streptomyces species and K. setae. These proteins are believed to be unique to the Streptomycetales order, thus provide molecular markers which can be used to distinguish this group from the rest of the Actinomycetota.
Streptomyces atroolivaceus is a bacterium species from the genus Streptomyces which has been isolated from soil in Russia. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Streptomyces atroolivaceus produces leinamycin , mithramycin and chromocyclomycin .
Streptomyces griseus is a species of bacteria in the genus Streptomyces commonly found in soil. A few strains have been also reported from deep-sea sediments. It is a Gram-positive bacterium with high GC content .
