  • Title: Susceptibility of ribosomes of the tetracycline-producing strain of Streptomyces aureofaciens to tetracyclines.
    Author: Mikulík K, Jiránová A, Janda I, Weiser J.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1983 Feb 07; 152(1):125-30. PubMed ID: 6404649.
    Abstract:
    Ribosomes from cells of Streptomyces aureofaciens producing tetracycline antibiotics (Tc-ribosomes) differ in electrophoretic mobility of ribosomal proteins S2, S10 and L19 from those of the same strain, where the production of tetracyclines was suppressed by changed cultivation conditions (C-ribosomes). Purified tight vacant couples C- and Tc-ribosomes are equally active in the translation of poly(U). Both types of S. aureofaciens ribosomes are more sensitive to tetracycline and chlortetracycline than ribosomes of Escherichia coli in the Phe-tRNA binding and the translation of poly(U).
