Nourseothricin (NTC) is a member of the streptothricin-class of aminoglycoside antibiotics produced by Streptomyces species. Chemically, NTC is a mixture of the related compounds streptothricin C, D, E, and F.[1] NTC inhibits protein synthesis by inducing miscoding. It is used as a selection marker for a wide range of organisms including bacteria, yeast, filamentous fungi, and plant cells. It is not known to have adverse side-effects on positively selected cells, a property cardinal to a selection drug.[2]

Streptothricin F is effective against highly drug-resistant gram-negative bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant E. coli.[3]

NTC can be inactivated by nourseothricin N-acetyl transferase (NAT) from Streptomyces noursei, an enzyme that acetylates the beta-amino group of the beta-lysine residue of NTC.[4] NAT can thus act as an antibiotic resistance gene.[5]

Properties

NTC is highly soluble in water (~ 1 g/mL) and stable in solution for 2 years at 4 °C.[6]
