The effect of various conditions of heat shock on production of actinomycins by Streptomyces chrysomallus 2 and their composition was studied. The actinomycin biosynthesis was shown to be the function of the growing mycelium and changed in accordance with changes in the volume of the mycelium and its morphological features after heat shock at various suboptimal temperatures. The temperature shock had a specific action on the antibiotic synthesis: the index of the actinomycin maximum quantity increased after the heat shock at 35 and 38 degrees C and lowered more sharply than that of the biomass volume after the heat shock at the temperatures of 40, 42, 45 and 50 degrees C for 1 hour. After the shock at 38 degrees C the component composition of the actinomycin complex did not significantly change while with addition of exogenic amino acids such as L-valine, L-leucine and L-isoleucine the shock effect on the component composition of the actinomycin complex was marked. 相似文献

A role for heat-shock proteins (HSPs) in proliferation after heat treatment was considered in synchronized mouse neuroblastoma cells. For this purpose enhancement of HSP synthesis after heat treatment was inhibited by actinomycin D and the effect of this on cell cycle progression into mitosis and on cell survival was studied both in thermoresistant G1- and in thermosensitive late S/G2-phase cells. In G1-phase cells expression of basal and heat-induced HSP synthesis was the same as that in late S/G2-phase cells, which suggests that regulation of thermoresistance throughout the cell cycle is not directly linked with HSP synthesis. The synthesis of HSP36, HSP68, and HSP70 was enhanced after a 30-min treatment at 41-43 degrees C. Increase of HSP synthesis after heat shock was partly suppressed by the presence of 0.1 microgram/ml actinomycin D during heat treatment, while 0.2 micrograms/ml prevented enhancement of HSP synthesis completely. Suppression of heat-induced HSP synthesis by actinomycin D had the same concentration dependency in G1- and late S/G2-phase cells. Actinomycin D potentiated induction of mitotic delay by heat treatment (30 min, 42.5 degrees C) but only under conditions where it actually inhibited heat-induced enhancement of HSP synthesis. Heat-induced cell killing was also potentiated by actinomycin D. The potentiating effect of actinomycin D on heat-induced mitotic delay and on heat-induced cell killing was more pronounced in G1-phase cells than in late S/G2-phase cells. These results give evidence for a role of HSPs in the resumption of proliferation after heat treatment and suggest that heated G1-phase cells are more dependent on HSP synthesis for recovery of proliferation after heat treatment than heated late S/G2-phase cells. 相似文献

Nonactin, produced by Streptomyces griseus ETH A7796, is a macrotetrolide assembled from nonactic acid. It is an effective inhibitor of drug efflux in multidrug resistant erythroleukemia K562 cells at sub-toxic concentrations and has been shown to possess both antibacterial and antitumor activity. As total synthesis is impractical for the generation of nonactin analogs we have studied precursor-directed biosynthesis as an alternative as it is known that nonactic acid can serve as a nonactin precursor in vivo. To determine the scope of the approach we prepared and evaluated a furan-based nonactic acid derivative, 11. Although no new nonactin analogs were detected when 11 was administered to S. griseus fermentative cultures, a significant inhibition of nonactin biosynthesis was noted (IC50 ~ 100 μM). Cell mass, nonactic acid production and the generation of other secondary metabolites in the culture were unaffected by 11 demonstrating that 11 selectively inhibited the assembly of nonactin from nonactic acid. While we were unable to generate new nonactin analogs we have discovered, however, a useful inhibitor that we can use to probe the mechanism of nonactin assembly with the ultimate goal of developing more successful precursor-directed biosynthesis transformations. 相似文献

Effect of hyperthermia on protein biosynthesis in L5178Y murine leukemic lymphoblasts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effects of elevated temperatures upon protein biosynthesis were determined in L5178Y murine leukemic lymphoblasts. The rate of protein synthesis was inhibited proportionately to the increase in temperature. Efforts were made to determine the mechanism of heat inactivation of protein synthesis by studying the requirements for recovery of activity after the cells were returned to 37°C. The ability of actinomycin to block the recovery process suggests that elevated temperatures destroy or inactivate a species of RNA required for protein synthesis. Loss of RNA during heating of the cells is apparently at least partially dependent on protein synthesis, since the presence of cycloheximide during heat shock, is capable of ameliorating the effects of short duration heat treatment. 相似文献

Intracellular levels of total glutathione and cytosolic superoxide dismutase activity were assayed in cells from Tetrahymena pyriformis either exposed to sub-lethal (34°C) or to lethal heat shock (39°C). The results showed that glutathione levels decrease to 60% of normal values after a sub-lethal heat shock for 1 hour. This change is part of the heat shock response, since the effect is reversed as soon as cells are brought to their normal growing temperature. Using actinomycin D, which blocks the synthesis of high molecular weight hsp (Galego and Rodrigues-Pousada, 1985), prior to thermal stress, the fall in total glutathione is not observed, suggesting a partial correlation with the synthesis of these stress proteins. Using cells pre-exposed to a sub-lethal heat shock, a subsequent short severe heat shock does not lead to a significant decrease of the glutathione content. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity is not significantly induced after either a short period at 34°C or a prolonged treatment at the same temperature. 相似文献

To study the modes of actinomycin biosynthesis and the mechanism responsible for resistance to the antibiotic producing S. chrysomallus No. 2, the authors undertook an examination and studies into the cloning system for gene(s) of resistance to actinomycin from a S. chrysomallus No. 2 actinomycin C producer and the cloning of a S. chrysomallus No. DNA fragment to the actinomycin-sensitive Streptomyces Sp. 26-115 H-I on the vector plasmid pIJ702. The cloning gave rise to actinomycin-resistant strains. The character of actinomycin resistance is inheritable in a steady fashion. 相似文献

Nonactin is the parent compound of a group of highly atypical polyketide metabolites produced by Streptomyces griseus subsp. griseus ETH A7796. In this paper we describe the isolation, sequencing, and analysis of 15? omitted?559 bp of chromosomal DNA, containing the potential nonactin biosynthesis gene cluster, from S. griseus subsp. griseus ETH A7796. Fourteen open reading frames were observed in the DNA sequence. Significantly, type II polyketide synthase (PKS) homologues were discovered in an apparent operon structure, which also contained the nonactate synthase gene (nonS), clustered with the tetranactin resistance gene. The deduced products of two of the genes (nonK and nonJ) are quite unusual ketoacyl synthase (KAS) alpha and KASbeta homologues. We speculate that nonactic acid, the polyketide precursor of nonactin, is synthesized by a type II PKS system. 相似文献

The effect of various conditions of heat shock (1 hour at 35, 38, 40, 42, 45 and 50 degrees C) on the growth and morphological features of Streptomyces chrysomallus, an organism producing actinomycin, was studied. A definite regularity in the mycelium morphological changes at high temperatures was observed. After the shock at 35 and 38 degrees C the biomass volume and morphological features of the streptomycete did not markedly differ from those in the control. The shock at 40 degrees C induced the growth inhibition with decreasing the biomass volume by 50 per cent and appearance of submerged spores. When the shock conditions were more rigid (42, 45 and 50 degrees C) the mycelium growth lacked. It is of interest that the temperature of 42 degrees C induced abundant formation of the spores. With further increasing of the temperature to 45 and 50 degrees C the spore formation was not so abundant. The changes in the growth and development of the streptomycete are discussed in relation to the molecular mechanism of the cell protection from temperature shock. 相似文献

The macromolecular reguirements for the initiation and maintenance of macronuclear DNA replication were studied in heat synchronized Tetrahymena pyriformis GL-C. Previous work had established that macronuclear S periods could occur in a consecutive fashion without intervening cell divisions during a multiple heat shock treatment, as well as immediately following the synchronized cell divisions. Cycloheximide treatment prior to or during the S period which follows the first synchronized cell division resulted in abolition of the initiation of DNA synthesis or an almost immediate cessation of DNA synthesis in progress. Temporary inhibition of DNA synthesis occurred when cycloheximide was added late in the S period. Treatment with actinomycin D was found to block the initiation of DNA synthesis but did not appreciably affect the continuation of the S period. It was concluded that RNA synthesis was required for the initiation but not the maintenance of DNA replication, whereas protein synthesis was necessary for both processes. The dependency of the initiation of an S period on prior RNA and protein synthesis was also shown to exist when a second consecutive S period was initiated without a preceding cell division. Treatment with actinomycin or cycloheximide prior to a supernumerary S period during a multiple heat shock treatment completely abolished the initiation of DNA synthesis. In T. pyriformis the synthesis of RNA and protein related to the initiation of the S period is tightly coupled to each cycle of DNA replication. 相似文献

A putative ribosomal protein (rp) mRNA in Chironomus riparius has been found using differential display (DD). Its sequence has 84.8% identity with mosquito rp L8, Aedes albopictus, and is approximately 0.9 kb. Studies were undertaken in order to evaluate rp as a control for environmentally relevant genes. Responses of Drosophila heat shock 70 gene (hsp70) were used to establish heat shock temperatures and cadmium (Cd) concentrations for Chironomus experiments and to validate DD. Expression of hsp70 was induced over control by 28 degrees C at 30 minutes and 1 mM Cd at 24 hours (p< or =0.05). For Chironomus, DD, Northern blot, and nuclease sensitivity were used to measure responses to two stressors: heat shock for 30 minutes and Cd for 24 or 48 hours. Differential display and nuclease sensitivity assays found expression of rp mRNA at 37 degrees C and 16 mM Cd to be similar to controls. Northern blots indicated statistically significant effects for heat shock (p = 0.046) but not Cd (p = 0.406). However, mRNA levels at 37 degrees C were increased only 1.72-fold over controls. A concentration of 24 nM actinomycin D suppressed rp expression as measured by nuclease sensitivity assays. Stressors should not affect rp mRNA levels below their LC-50s. 相似文献

The nucleotide sequence of a region upstream of the type II polyketide synthase genes in the cluster for biosynthesis of the polyketide antibiotic jadomycin B in Streptomyces venezuelae contained an open reading frame encoding a sequence of 196 amino acids that resembeled sequences deduced for a group of repressor proteins. The strongest similarity was to EnvR of Escherichia coli, but the sequence also resembled MtrR, AcrR, TetC, and TcmR, all of which are involved in regulating resistance to antibiotics or toxic hydrophobic substances in the environment. Disruption of the nucleotide sequence of this putative S. venezuelae repressor gene (jadR2), by insertion of an apramycin resistance gene at an internal MluI site, and replacement of the chromosomal gene generated mutants that produced jadomycin B without the stress treatments (exposure to heat shock or to toxic concentrations of ethanol) required for jadomycin B production by the wild type. When cultures of the disruption mutants were ethanol stressed, they overproduced the antibiotic. From these results it was concluded that expression of the jadomycin B biosynthesis genes are negatively regulated by jadR2. 相似文献

The composition of the macrotetrolide complex was found to be strongly dependent on the conditions of the Streptomyces chrysomallus v. macrotetrolidi cultivation and could be varied by including in the medium 0.2% of organic acids, precursors of macrotetrolides, such as acetic, propionic and succinic. Acetate caused an increase of the nonactin/monactin ratio, and no other homologues were detected. On the contrary, propionate and succinate produced a drop in the nonactin synthesis, which was accompanied by a rise in the amount of the higher homologues. The composition of the macrtetrolide mixture can also be changed by introducing in the cultivation medium specific inhibitors (100-200 micrograms/ml) such as malonate, cobalamin analogue, sulfadimesin. Malonate, an inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase, increased the biosynthesis of higher ethylated homologues. Inhibition of methylmalonate mutase resulted in an increased yield of the methylated nonactin homologue and in a decreased yield of dinactin. In this case no other homologues were produced. The inhibitor of transmethylation, sulfadimesin, had no effect on the biosynthesis and composition of the macrotetralide mixture. 相似文献

The protoplasts of Actinomyces sp. 26--115 producing actinomycin C were obtained by the action of lysozyme on the mycelial paste of a 48-hour microbial culture. The protoplast capacity for synthesizing actinomycin was decreased as compared to that of the intact mycelium. The transport of L-isoleucine, a precursor of actinomycin C biosynthesis in the protoplasts also decreased but this could not be the only cause of the decrease in the actinomycin biosynthesis capacity. The biosynthesis of actinomycin C by the protoplasts of Actinomycin sp. 26--115 did not require galactose and was not inhibited by glucose and exogenic actinomycin. 相似文献

The effect of inhibiting and stimulating agents on the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites (actinomycin X and melanoid pigments) was studied in Streptomyces galbus as a function of the growth temperature. D-Valine was shown to inhibit actinomycin synthesis and to stimulate production of melanoid pigments. Tryptophan stimulated the synthesis of both actinomycin and melanoid pigments. The temperature of growth was found to regulate the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites by the culture. The organism synthesized actinomycin at 28 degrees C, but it switched to the production of melanoid pigments at 42 degrees C. This may be considered as a protective reaction of the organism to an increase in the temperature of the environment and in UV radiation which is possible under natural conditions as a consequence of temperature elevation. The paper presents a hypothetical scheme for the regulation of biosynthesis of actinomycin and melanoid pigments by temperature. According to the scheme, the culture synthesizes secondary metabolites from tryptophan to hydroxykynurenine via a general pathway which is then bifurcated: at 28 degrees C--through methylhydroxyanthranilic acid to actinocin to actinomycin; at 42 degrees C--through hydroxyanthranilic acid, o-aminophenol, pyrocatechol, and possibly, o-benzoquinone, to melanin. 相似文献

Regulation of the synthesis of superoxide dismutases in rat lungs during oxidant and hyperthermic stresses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Heat shock proteins are induced at normal temperatures by oxidants and during reoxygenation following hypoxia. We now report cyanide-resistant O2 consumption increased 30-50% in rat lungs exposed to heat shock or reoxygenation following hypoxia. The synthesis of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase, but not Mn superoxide dismutase, was increased in rat lung slices by in vivo hyperthermia (39 degrees C), by in vitro heat shock (41 degrees C), and during incubation of lung slices with the Cu chelator diethyldithiocarbamate, which decreased the activity of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase. The heat shock-induced increase in Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase developed 2 h later than the induction of heat shock proteins and was not blocked by actinomycin D. The rates of synthesis of both superoxide dismutases were decreased 50% by hypoxia and failed to increase during reoxygenation. During hypoxia the activity of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase decreased about 50%, but the activity of Mn superoxide dismutase remained unchanged. We conclude that hyperthermia increases the synthesis of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase, the synthesis of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase and Mn superoxide dismutase are not coordinately regulated by hyperthermia or by the oxidant stress produced by lowering the activity of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase, and the synthesis of heat shock proteins and Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase are regulated at different levels of gene expression. 相似文献

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and fatty acid analysis were used to determine how cold shocking reduces the thermal stability of Listeria monocytogenes. Additionally, antibiotics that can elicit production of cold or heat shock proteins were used to determine the effect of translation blockage on ribosome thermal stability. Fatty acid profiles showed no significant variations as a result of cold shock, indicating that changes in membrane fatty acids were not responsible for the cold shock-induced reduction in thermal tolerance. Following a 3-h cold shock from 37 to 0 degrees C, the maximum denaturation temperature of the 50S ribosomal subunit and 70S ribosomal particle peak was reduced from 73.4 +/- 0.1 degrees C (mean +/- standard deviation) to 72.1 +/- 0.5 degrees C (P < or = 0.05), indicating that cold shock induced instability in the associated ribosome structure. The maximum denaturation temperature of the 30S ribosomal subunit peak did not show a significant shift in temperature (from 67.5 +/- 0.4 degrees C to 66.8 +/- 0.5 degrees C) as a result of cold shock, suggesting that either 50S subunit or 70S particle sensitivity was responsible for the intact ribosome fragility. Antibiotics that elicited changes in maximum denaturation temperature in ribosomal components also elicited reductions in thermotolerance. Together, these data suggest that ribosomal changes resulting from cold shock may be responsible for the decrease in D value observed when L. monocytogenes is cold shocked. 相似文献
