Over the last century, Streptomyces bacteria – and their metabolic products – have revolutionized modern medicine. These little pharmaceutical factories produce a vast array of natural products that have been co-opted for medical and agricultural therapies. In addition to their metabolic sophistication, Streptomyces also exhibit remarkable developmental and regulatory complexity.
Guest-edited by Dr Marie Elliot, this collection of keynote research articles will highlight fascinating aspects of Streptomyces biology, and the advances that are providing us with newfound insight and appreciation for these extraordinary bacteria.
