Isolation of actinomycin derivatives from diffusible pigment of Streptomyces sp. UKMCC_PT7

This study was conducted to investigate the potential of marine actinomycetes isolated from Malaysian waters as producers of biologically active compounds. Streptomyces sp. UKMCC_PT7 was isolated from seawater collected in Pulau Tinggi, Johor. This bacterium was found to produce yellow diffusible pi...
