 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 24 Rare actinomycetes plasmid biology research Authors: Yong-Qiang Tian Guo-Ping Zhao Zhong-Jun Qin [Abstract] non-Streptomyces actinomycetes of the rare group of fungi are widely distributed in the natural environment has important basic research and application value. In many rare actinomycetes found in ring and linear plasmid, from plasmid developed for the study of rare genetic operating system can Actinomyces physiology and metabolism to provide a powerful tool. In this paper, a rare actinomycetes present in the plasmid biology research. [Keywords:] rare actinomycetes; plasmid ABSTRACT The non-Streptomyces actinomycetes, living widespread in various habitats, are important for the basic and applied researches purposes. They harbor indigenously circular as well as linear plasmids, a useful source for developing genetic tool for studying of their unique physiology and metabolism. In this review, we summarize the current progresses on plasmid biology in the rare actinomycetes. KEY WORDS Rare actinomycetes; Plasmid Actinomycetes fungi is very important group of high-GC content Gram-positive bacteria, their morphology and bacterial culture is fundamentally different from most of the produce mycelium structure, including the medium surface of the substrate mycelium and medium gas plate wire and Sporothrix. 145 have been published so far are about 2000 kinds, of which Streptomyces genus of about 500 species. They generated about 10,000 kinds of antibiotics and physiologically active substances, in medicine, industry and agriculture have an important application value [1]. The rare non-Streptomyces actinomycetes is widely distributed in various soil environments, often with unique morphological and physiological characteristics. Rare actinomycetes are also the same as Streptomyces can produce a wealth of secondary metabolites, such as acid bacteria strains to be no branches arising from rifamycin (rifamycin) and vancomycin (vancomycin) [
