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]

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.[3] NAT can thus act as an antibiotic resistance gene.

Properties

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

gollark: It looks like the design change is still in their A/B test system, so I can override it for now.

gollark: Or you just haven't updated.

gollark: I think they may be A/B testing.

gollark: The developer documentation forbids third party clients, but you may not have actually agreed to that.

gollark: Technically speaking, the TOS forbids modifying the client stuff, not third party clients.
