Plant Physiology 44:806-808 (1969) © 1969 American Society of Plant Biologists The Influence of Syringomycin on Ribonucleic Acid Synthesis 1a Department of Crop Science, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan 48823
Syringomycin, a wide-spectrum antibiotic produced by strains of Pseudomonas syringae which cause bacterial canker of peach, was able to bind to salmon sperm and calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid but not to calf thymus histone; it also inhibited ribonucleic acid polymerase activity. These abilities to bind to deoxyribonucleic acid and to inhibit ribonucleic acid polymerase were inactivated when the phytotoxic and antibiotic properties of syringomycin were inactivated.
