Streptosporangium roseum DSM 43021

Streptosporangium roseum (strain ATCC 12428 / DSM 43021 / JCM 3005 / NI 9100) is an aerobic Gram-positive bacterium isolated from vegetable garden soil in 1955. It produces aerial mycelium and the color of the substrate mycelium is red-brown to yellow-brown. S. roseum utilizes glucose, arabinose, sucrose, xylose, fructose, and raffinose, but not inositol, mannose, rhamnose, or cellulose. It produces a secondary metabolite, the antibiotic angucycline WS 79089B, which is an inhibitor of the endothelin-converting enzyme. In contrast to S. carneum, S. roseum does not produce an antibiotic against Staphylococcus aureus. (Adaptated from: http://standardsingenomics.org/index.php/sigen/article/view/sigs.631049/139).
