Title:
AUTOINDUCER COMPOUND TO IMPROVE THE PRODUCTIVITY OF NATAMYCIN PRODUCING STREPTOMYCES STRAINS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/104206
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention provides a compound of the formula (I). Furthermore, the invention provides a process for the production of a compound of formula (I). The present invention also provides a process for the production of natamycin by a Streptomyces strain comprising adding a composition comprising an auto inducer to the fermentation medium. The present invention furthermore provides the use of a compound of formula (I) in the manufacture of a product by fermentation of a Streptomyces strain. The present invention finally discloses a Streptomyces strain that is defective in natamycin production and that is capable of producing a compound of formula (I) wherein both R1 and R2 are hydrogen and a Streptomyces strain that is defective in production of a compound of formula (I) wherein both R1 and R2 are hydrogen and that is capable of producing natamycin in the presence of said compound.
