, (2008/06/13)
An RNA polymerase transcription accelerator comprising a compound represented by the following Formula (I) or salts thereof. A method of sequencing DNA in which nucleic acid transcripts are obtained using an RNA polymerase and a DNA fragment as a template, the resulted nucleic acid transcripts are separated, the nucleic acid sequence is determined from the separated fractions wherein the nucleic acid transcription reaction is carried out in the presence of a compound selected from a group of compounds represented by the above formula (I). The polyamine compounds above have outstanding accelerating activity on transcription activity of RNA polymerase. Therefore, use of the polyamine compounds in a DNA sequencing method using RNA polymerase can make a length of DNA sequence that can be determined in one sequencing longer.

The formation of the β-lysine moiety of streptothricin F has been studied by feeding to Streptomyces L-1689-23 α-[3-13C,15N]-, α-[(3RS)-2H2]-, α-[(3R)-2H]-, and α[(3S)-2H]lysine and β-[(2S)-2H]lysine. From the analysis of either the 13C NMR or 2H NMR spectrum of the derived antibiotics, it has been determined that the α-nitrogen migrates to C-3 with inversion of configuration by an intramolecular process, and the 3-pro-R hydrogen migrates to C-2 with inversion of configuration by a process that is substantially or completely intermolecular. The very high degree of incorporation of labeled β-lysine indicates it is probably an intermediate in the biosynthesis of streptothricin F. The formation of the beta -lysine moiety of streptothricin F has been studied by feeding to Streptomyces L-1689-23 alpha - left bracket 3-**1**3C, **1**5N right bracket -, alpha - left bracket (3RS)-**2H//2 right bracket -, alpha - left bracket (3R)-**2H right bracket -, and alpha - left bracket (3S)-**2H right bracket lysine and beta - left bracket (2S)-**2H right bracket lysine. From the analysis of either the **1**3C NMR or **2H NMR spectrum of the derived antibotics, it has been determined that the alpha -nitrogen migrates to C-3 with inversion of configuration by an intramolecular process, and the 3-pro-R hydrogen migrates to C-2 with inversion of configuration by a process that is substantially or completely intermolecular. The very high degree of incorporation of labeled beta -lysine indicates it is probably an intermediate in the biosynthesis of streptothricin F.
