微生物能够产生众多结构和生物活性多样的次生代谢产物,而其生物合成基因簇的挖掘和异源表达是药物创新和产量提高的必要前提. 在过去20年里,大量重要天然产物的生物合成基因簇在微生物中被不断的发现. 在这些被挖掘的基因簇中,肽类抗生素的生物合成基因簇占了很大比重.肽类抗生素因具有抗菌、抗肿瘤、抗病毒等多种生物学活性而备受化学家和药物学家的重视. 如能了解它们的生物合成机制,实现其基因簇的异源表达,将使合理化遗传修饰生物合成通路获取结构类似物(药物开发)和提高产量成为可能. 大肠杆菌作为最广泛、最成功的表达体系,常用来表达外源基因,但一般只能表达一个或几个基因,却很少有用它来表达整个生物合成基因簇. 2001年,Khosla和Cane在E.coli中成功异源表达了一个复杂聚酮天然产物(红霉素苷原6dEB)基因簇. 这是首个有关在E.coli中异源表达天然产物生物合成基因簇的研究. 至此之后,大肠杆菌开始作为生物合成基因簇的异源表达宿主,越来越受到相关领域的重视. 紧接着核糖体肽和非核糖体肽生物合成基因簇也相继在大肠杆菌中成功异源表达. 本文对肽类抗生素生物合成基因簇在E.coli中的异源表达进行了综述. 相似文献

合成生物学和基因组测序技术的快速发展使挖掘和高效合成天然产物进入了一个全新的时代。由于多数原始菌株生长缓慢、难以培养及遗传改造困难等问题,导致天然产物生物合成基因簇的激活和高效表达受到严重制约。基于此,将原始菌株来源的基因簇转移到操作简便、遗传背景清晰的模式宿主中进行异源表达成为天然产物发现和产量提高的一种有效手段。其中,基因簇的克隆与编辑是实现天然产物异源表达的一个主要限速步骤。CRISPR/Cas技术的应用极大地提高了大型基因簇克隆和编辑的效率,有效促进了微生物来源新药的发现。本文针对基于CRISPR/Cas开发的基因簇克隆和编辑技术进行了系统梳理和全面总结,探讨相关技术在天然产物挖掘和高效合成中的应用及其重要意义。 相似文献

Organization of the biosynthetic gene cluster for the polyketide macrolide mycinamicin in Micromonospora griseorubida 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mycinamicin, composed of a branched lactone and two sugars, desosamine and mycinose, at the C-5 and C-21 positions, is a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic produced by Micromonospora griseorubida A11725, which shows strong antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The nucleotide sequence (62 kb) of the mycinamicin biosynthetic gene cluster, in which there were 22 open reading frames (ORFs), was completely determined. All of the products from the 22 ORFs are responsible for the biosynthesis of mycinamicin II and self-protection against the compounds synthesized. Central to the cluster is a polyketide synthase locus (mycA), which encodes a seven-module system comprised of five multifunctional proteins. Immediately downstream of mycA, there is a set of genes for desosamine biosynthesis (mydA-G and mycB). Moreover, mydH, whose product is responsible for the biosynthesis of mycinose, lies between mydA and B. On the other hand, eight ORFs were detected upstream of the mycinamicin PKS gene. The myrB, mycG, and mycF genes had already been characterized by Inouye et al. The other five ORFs (mycCI, mycCII, mydI, mycE, and mycD) lie between mycA1 and mycF, and these five genes and mycF are responsible for the biosynthesis of mycinose. In the PKS gene, four regions of KS and AT domains in modules 1, 4, 5, and 6 indicated that it does not show the high GC content typical for Streptomyces genes, nor the unusual frame plot patterns for Streptomyces genes. Methylmalonyl-CoA was used as substrate in the functional units of those four modules. The relationship between the substrate and the unusual frame plot pattern of the KS and AT domains was observed in the other PKS genes, and it is suggested that the KS-AT original region was horizontally transferred into the PKS genes on the chromosomal DNA of several actinomycetes strains. 相似文献

Lysobacter lactamgenus produces cephabacins, a class of beta-lactam antibiotics which have an oligopeptide moiety attached to the cephem ring at the C-3 position. The nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) system, which comprises four distinct modules, is required for the biosynthesis of this short oligopeptide, when one takes the chemical structure of these antibiotics into consideration. The cpbI gene, which has been identified in a region upstream of the pcbAB gene, encodes the NRPS - polyketide synthase hybrid complex, where NRPS is composed of three modules, while the cpbK gene -- which has been reported as being upstream of cpbI-- comprises a single NRPS module. An in silico protein analysis was able to partially reveal the specificity of each module. The four recombinant adenylation (A) domains from each NRPS module were heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. Biochemical data from ATP-PPi exchange assays indicated that L-arginine was an effective substrate for the A1 domain, while the A2, A3 and A4 domains activated L-alanine. These findings are in an agreement with the known chemical structure of cephabacins, as well as with the anticipated substrate specificity of the NRPS modules in CpbI and CpbK, which are involved in the assembly of the tetrapeptide at the C-3 position. 相似文献

Nonribosomal peptides, synthesized by nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS), are an important group of diverse bioactive fungal metabolites. Xylaria sp. BCC1067, which is known to produce a variety of biologically active metabolites, was studied for gene encoding NRPS by two different PCR-based methods and seven different NRPS fragments were obtained. In addition, screening a genomic library with an amplified NRPS fragment as a probe identified a putative NRPS gene named XyNRPSA. The functionality of XyNRPSA for the production of a corresponding metabolite was probed by gene insertion inactivation. Comparing the disrupting metabolite profile with that of the wild type led to the identification of a speculated metabolite. The crude extract of Xylaria sp. BCC1067 also exhibits antifungal activity against the human pathogens Candida albicans and Trichophyton mentagrophytes. However, the evaluation of biological activity of the XyNRPSA product suggests that it is neither a compound with antifungal activity nor a siderophore. In the vicinity of XyNRPSA, a second gene (named XyPtB) was identified. Its localization and homology to orfB of the ergot alkaloid biosynthetic gene cluster suggests that XyPtB may be involved in XyNRPSA product biosynthesis. 相似文献

赭曲霉毒素A(ochratoxin A,OTA)是国际癌症研究机构认定的"2B"类致癌物。黑曲霉Aspergillus niger是美国食品药品监督局认可的食品安全菌。然而近年来陆续发现某些黑曲霉菌株能够产生OTA,这会对人类健康构成潜在威胁。阐明黑曲霉生物合成OTA的关键基因有助于理解OTA生物合成机制,这对OTA污染的防控具有重要意义。本研究克隆了产OTA黑曲霉中非核糖体肽合成酶(NRPS)编码基因(An15g07910),并对其进行了生物信息学分析,在此基础上采用同源重组的方法敲除了该基因,获得了一株性能稳定的敲除突变株Δnrps。与野生株相比,Δnrps突变株的表型在CYA培养基中并无明显改变,但在7d培养期间完全失去了合成赭曲霉毒素α(ochratoxinα,OTα)和OTA的能力,而赭曲霉毒素β(ochratoxinβ,OTβ)的合成不受影响。在野生株培养过程中,该nrps基因前4d表达量逐渐增大,并在第4天达到最高,随后基因表达量逐渐下降并趋于稳定,这与OTA的含量变化基本一致。结果表明该nrps基因(An15g07910)参与OTA的生物合成,其编码的NRPS可能负责催化苯丙氨酸部分和二氢异香豆素部分的交联。 相似文献

Characterization of the tunicamycin gene cluster unveiling unique steps involved in its biosynthesis
Wenqing Chen Dongjing Qu Lipeng Zhai Meifeng Tao Yemin Wang Shuangjun Lin Neil P. J. Price Zixin Deng 《蛋白质与细胞》2010,1(12):1093
Tunicamycin, a potent reversible translocase I inhibitor, is produced by several Actinomycetes species. The tunicamycin structure is highly unusual, and contains an 11-carbon dialdose sugar and an α, β -1″,11′-glycosidic linkage. Here we report the identification of a gene cluster essential for tunicamycin biosynthesis by high-throughput heterologous expression (HHE) strategy combined with a bioassay. Introduction of the genes into heterologous non-producing Streptomyces hosts results in production of tunicamycin by these strains, demonstrating the role of the genes for the biosynthesis of tunicamycins. Gene disruption experiments coupled with bioinformatic analysis revealed that the tunicamycin gene cluster is minimally composed of 12 genes (tunA– tunL ). Amongst these is a putative radical SAM enzyme (Tun B) with a potentially unique role in biosynthetic carbon-carbon bond formation. Hence, a seven-step novel pathway is proposed for tunicamycin biosynthesis. Moreover, two gene clusters for the potential biosynthesis of tunicamycin-like antibiotics were also identified in Streptomyces clavuligerus ATCC 27064 and Actinosynnema mirums DSM 43827. These data provide clarification of the novel mechanisms for tunicamycin biosynthesis, and for the generation of new-designer tunicamycin analogs with selective/enhanced bioactivity via combinatorial biosynthesis strategies. 相似文献

许多微生物能利用非核糖体肽合成酶(NRPSs)合成结构复杂、种类繁多的的生物活性肽。非核糖体肽因其独特的理化特性和药理学特性已被广泛关注,极具商业开发潜力。NRPSs由多个模块组成,模块的不同空间排列顺序决定其多肽产物的氨基酸序列特异性。NRPSs以多载体巯基化模板机理进行多肽合成,其底物特异性由腺苷酰化结构域和缩合结构域共同实现。目前,人们已经利用天然的NRPSs、某些特定结构域、将已知NRPSs的模块或特定结构域进行组合甚至杂合组合而构建成的新的NRPSs来合成目的多肽。 相似文献

CYP99A3: functional identification of a diterpene oxidase from the momilactone biosynthetic gene cluster in rice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Rice (Oryza sativa) produces momilactone diterpenoids as both phytoalexins and allelochemicals. Strikingly, the rice genome contains a biosynthetic gene cluster for momilactone production, located on rice chromosome 4, which contains two cytochrome P450 (CYP) mono-oxygenases, CYP99A2 and CYP99A3, with undefined roles; although it has been previously shown that RNA interference double knock-down of this pair of closely related CYPs reduced momilactone accumulation. Here we attempted biochemical characterization of CYP99A2 and CYP99A3, which was ultimately achieved by complete gene recoding, enabling functional recombinant expression in bacteria. With these synthetic gene constructs it was possible to demonstrate that while CYP99A2 does not exhibit significant activity with diterpene substrates, CYP99A3 catalyzes consecutive oxidations of the C19 methyl group of the momilactone precursor syn-pimara-7,15-diene to form, sequentially, syn-pimaradien-19-ol, syn-pimaradien-19-al, and syn-pimaradien-19-oic acid. These are presumably intermediates in momilactone biosynthesis, as a C19 carboxylic acid moiety is required for formation of the core 19,6-γ-lactone ring structure. We further were able to detect syn-pimaradien-19-oic acid in rice plants, which indicates physiological relevance for the observed activity of CYP99A3. In addition, we found that CYP99A3 also oxidized syn-stemod-13(17)-ene at C19 to produce, sequentially, syn-stemoden-19-ol, syn-stemoden-19-al, and syn-stemoden-19-oic acid, albeit with lower catalytic efficiency than with syn-pimaradiene. Although the CYP99A3 syn-stemodene-derived products were not detected in planta, these results nevertheless provide a hint at the currently unknown metabolic fate of this diterpene in rice. Regardless of any wider role, our results strongly indicate that CYP99A3 acts as a multifunctional diterpene oxidase in momilactone biosynthesis. 相似文献

Organization of biosynthetic gene cluster for avermectin in Streptomyces avermitilis: analysis of enzymatic domains in four polyketide synthases 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The analysis of the incorporation of 13C-labeled precursors into avermectins indicates that the avermectin aglycons are synthesized by head-to-tail condensation
of various acyl groups, which is similar to the biosynthesis of other polyketides. Polyketide synthases (PKS) use the appropriate
CoA ester as a primer and add acetate units from malonyl-CoA and propionate units from methylmalonyl-CoA to assemble the polyketides.
Avermectin aglycons are formed by addition to the starter unit (2-methylbutyrate or isobutyrate) of 12 acyl condensations
in the order P–A–A–A–A–P–P–A–P–A–P–A (P, propionyl; A, acetyl). Within the 90-kb gene cluster for avermectin biosynthesis,
the central 65-kb segment was found to be required for aglycon biosynthesis by phenotypic analysis of strains containing deletion
or insertion mutations in this region. A complete sequence analysis of the 65-kb segment indicated that this segment encodes
avermectin PKS. The avermectin PKS genes are organized into two converging blocks of ORFs. From the results of sequencing
analysis, a feature of the two regions, aveA1/aveA2 and avea3/aveA4, is that they encode four kinds of large multifunctional polypeptides containing 55 domains which possess putative fatty
acid synthase-like activities. The avermectin PKS (AVES 1–4) appear to contain two, three, or four modules. AVES 1 and 2 contain
two and four modules, respectively, whereas AVES 3 and AVES 4 each contains three modules. The 12 modules correspond to the
12 cycles required for synthesis of the avermectin aglycon. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2001) 27, 170–176.
