Common side effects include vertigo, vomiting, numbness of the face, fever, and rash. [3] Use during pregnancy may result in permanent deafness in the developing baby. [3] Use appears to be safe while breastfeeding. [4] It is not recommended in people with myasthenia gravis or other neuromuscular disorders. [4] Streptomycin is an aminoglycoside ...
Streptomycin. 2D line-angle representation.. Aminoglycoside is a medicinal and bacteriologic category of traditional Gram-negative antibacterial medications that inhibit protein synthesis and contain as a portion of the molecule an amino-modified glycoside ().
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 .
Cycloheximide is a naturally occurring fungicide produced by the bacterium Streptomyces griseus.Cycloheximide exerts its effects by interfering with the translocation step in protein synthesis (movement of two tRNA molecules and mRNA in relation to the ribosome), thus blocking eukaryotic translational elongation.
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 .
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.

Bafilomycin A1, B1 and C1 were first isolated from Streptomyces griseus in 1983. [11] During a screen seeking to identify microbial secondary metabolites whose activity mimicked that of two cardiac glycosides, bafilomycin C1 was identified as an inhibitor of P-ATPase with a k i of 11 μM.
Additional side effects can result from interaction with other drugs, such as the possibility of tendon damage from the administration of a quinolone antibiotic with a systemic corticosteroid. [ 51 ] Some antibiotics may also damage the mitochondrion , a bacteria-derived organelle found in eukaryotic, including human, cells. [ 52 ]
