Production of desferrioxamine E and new analogues by directed fermentation and feeding fermentation

Streptomyces olivaceus TU 2718 produces the siderophore desferrioxamine E. Production depends on L-lysine and iron concentrations in the medium. With optimized conditions the yield of desferrioxamine E could be increased to 12 g/l in feeding fermentations. Supplementation of the basic production med...

Description
Summary:Streptomyces olivaceus TU 2718 produces the siderophore desferrioxamine E. Production depends on L-lysine and iron concentrations in the medium. With optimized conditions the yield of desferrioxamine E could be increased to 12 g/l in feeding fermentations. Supplementation of the basic production medium with natural and synthetic precursors of desferrioxamine E led to the production of twelve new analogues of desferrioxamine E.
