Description General description Chemical structure: peptidyl nucleoside Application Noursethricin is used as a dominant selection antibiotic for genetically modified bacteria, yeasts, fungi, protozoa and plants. Biochem/physiol Actions Nourseothricin inhibits biosynthesis and induces miscoding. Resistance to nourseothricin is mediated by the sat1 encoded N-acetyltransferase. Nourseothricin is inactivated by acetylation of the β-amino group of the β-lysin. Antifungal effective against Candida albicans. Candida species transformed with the gene encoding nourseothricin acetyltransferase (CaNAT1) were resistant to nourseothricin.
