Abstract
Micromonosporasp. Rc5, a rare actinomycetes isolated from Egyptian desert. It showed antimicrobial activity against some food and blood borne pathogens. NRPS and PKS biosynthetic gene clusters were recorded in our strain. Previous findings ensure that, Micromonosporasp. Rc5 is a promising source for novel antibiotic production against multi drug resistant pathogens.
Keywords: Micromonospora-Antimicrobial-Next generation sequencing-Illumina platform-food borne pathogens.
