Cystathionine gamma-lyase (EC 4.4.1.1) was purified from Streptomyces cattleya, an actinomycete which produces the unusual beta-lactam antibiotic thienamycin. The enzyme displays broad substrate specificity and is similar to gamma-lyases purified from other microorganisms. That the gamma-lyase
Radioactive- and stable isotope-containing substrates were used to identify the biosynthetic precursors of the beta-lactam antibiotic, thienamycin, in Streptomyces cattleya. Acetate is utilized by the organism to form C(6) and C(7) of the beta-lactam ring. The two carbons of the hydroxyethyl group
Streptomyces cattleya, S. fradiae and S. griseus produced different amounts of growth when cultured sequentially through sporulation, vegetative and antibiotic production media. Only S. griseus grew well on all three types of medium. Streptomyces cattleya grew poorly on both sporulation and
The enzymatic activities of three proteins encoded by the thienamycin gene cluster of Streptomyces cattleya (ThnR, ThnH, and ThnT) have been shown to incrementally cleave CoA to afford the active side-chain component of the beta-lactam antibiotic thienamycin. These results supersede proposals based
A new beta-lactam antibiotic, named thienamycin, was discovered in culture broths of Streptomyces MA4297. The producing organism, subsequently determined to be a hitherto unrecognized species, is designated Streptomyces cattleya (NRRL 8057). The antibiotic was isolated by adsorption on Dowex 50,
