  1. More than a billion tons of #chitin are produced on Earth each year. This study shows that the soil #bacterium #Streptomyces venezuelae thrives on chitin from #insect #exoskeletons, using a potent mix of chitinases and a dedicated chitobiose importer @PLOSBiology plos.io/45sg4S5

  6. Despite a century of use in #DrugDiscovery, specialized metabolism continues to amaze. Justin Nodwell explores a @PLOSBiology study that uses a novel computational approach to uncover unsuspected functions of a compound produced by #Streptomyces. Paper: plos.io/43UVUPB Primer: plos.io/4n25bOF

  11. During her work at Rutgers University microbiologist Elizabeth Bugie (1920-2001) was involved in the discovery of streptomycin, the first antibiotic effective against tuberculosis. While her boss received the Nobel Prize for this discovery, she wasn’t mentioned. Honouring her work on the discovery and evaluation of antibiotics, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces bugieae (DSM 41528) after her.

  16. Fanny Hesse (1850-1934) worked unpaid for her husband Walter Hesse in Robert Koch's laboratory. Koch was desperate to find a suitable medium for growing bacterial cultures. Fanny Hesse came up with the idea of using agar, which proved to be an ideal gelling agent. To honour her for introducing agar and revolutionising microbiology, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces hesseae (DSM 40473) after her.
