Mechanisms of Self-protection and Genes Coding for Antibiotic Biosynthesis, Particularly, in Microorganisms which Produce Antibiotic Inhibitors of Protein Synthesis

Streptomycetes are attractive microorganisms for their production of various secondary metabolites such as antibiotics. Now, the development of gene manipulation in this microorganisms enables the cloning and analysis of the genes which coding for antibiotic biosynthesis and resistance to the drug. In this article, we reviewed the studies with respect to the mechanisms of self-protection and cloning of the genes cloning for antibiotic biosynthesis, particularly, in microorganisms which produce antibiotic inhibitors of protein synthesis.
