Mutasynthesis* has paved the way for the introduction of a plethora of interesting hybrids, for instance; mutamicins, hybrimycins and hydroxygentamycin, and (d ) Conversion of Amikacin (I) from Kanamycin (II): Amikacin (I) is one of the most effective aminoglycosides. It may be produced chemically from Kanamycin (II) but this route is rather expensive and not cost-effective. However, an aminoglycoside producing strain of Bacillus circulars is capable of converting (II) into (I) by the addition of hydroxyaminobutyric acid.

The major noteworthy difference in this specific instance lies in the fact that a gene controlling the production of the desired constituent is virtually transferred from its basic source to a fast-growing microbial cell-line whereby permitting the large-scale production in comparatively a much shorter duration. However, it is rather a ‘difficult task’ to isolate a gene coding for a particular antibiotic. Interestingly, in the actinomycetin fungi, the ‘gene’ was separated conveniently from the chromosomal genes and cloned on naturally occurring plasmids.
