Streptomyces tunisiensis is a bacterium species from the genus of Streptomyces which has been isolated from forest soil in Tunis in Tunisia. [1] [3] [4] [5] Streptomyces tunisiensis has antibacterial activity. [5] The novel actinomycete strain, designated CN-207T, exhibited potent broad spectrum antibacterial activity against xlinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylooccus species and several other Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
