SCP1, coding for the methylenomycin biosynthetic genes in Streptomyces coelicolor, is a giant linear plasmid of 350 kb. Extensive physical characterization revealed that SCP1 has unusually long terminal inverted repeats (TIR) of about 80 kb on both ends and an insertion sequence, IS466, at the end of the right TIR (TIR-R), and the 5'-ends are attached to a terminal protein. In the NF strain S. coelicolor 2612, SCP1 is integrated into the chromosome at the 9-o'clock position. Analysis of the two junctions between the SCP1 DNA and the chromosomal DNA revealed that the left junction had an almost intact left terminus of SCP1, while the right junction was composed of IS466, completely deleting TIR-R. Based on these results, we presented a possible formation mechanism of the NF strain, which is characterized by integration of SCP1 into the chromosome via an interaction of the target site and the combined ends of the racket-frame structure of SCP1 followed by deletion of TIR-R. We also hypothesized that this type of integration of a giant linear plasmid might be involved in the origin and distribution of the chromosomal antibiotic biosynthetic gene clusters in microorganisms. 相似文献

SCP1, coding for the methylenomycin biosynthesis genes in Streptomyces coelicolor, was shown to be a giant linear plasmid of 350 kb with a copy number of about four by analysis with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. A detailed physical map of SCP1 was constructed by extensive digestion with six restriction endonucleases, by DNA hybridization experiments, and finally by cloning experiments. SCP1 has unusually long terminal inverted repeats of 80 kb on both ends and an insertion sequence at the end of the right terminal inverted repeat. Analysis by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis in agarose containing sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that a protein is bound to the terminal 4.1-kb SpeI fragments derived from both ends of SCP1. Treatment with lambda exonuclease or exonuclease III and SpeI digestion also indicated that the 5' ends of SCP1 are attached to a protein. 相似文献

Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), the best genetically studied streptomycete and Streptomyces lividans 66 are very closely related strains. This is further emphasized by our finding that a truncated copy of Tn4811 of S. lividans is present in the terminal inverted repeats of the S. coelicolor giant linear plasmid SCP1. The copy of Tn4811 in SCP1 lacks the first 1276 bp and shows only minor changes in the nucleotide sequence of the remaining 4.12 kb. Tn4811 exists in both ends of SCP1. 相似文献

AIMS: Characterization of SCP2165, a plasmid identified in the Gram-positive bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2). METHODS AND RESULTS: Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of mycelia of a S. coelicolor strain embedded in low melting agarose revealed the presence of a plasmid. Restriction enzyme mapping and sequence analysis of a 2.1 kb fragment revealed that this plasmid could be SCP2. SCP2 and its spontaneous derivative SCP2* are self-transmissible plasmids and have chromosome mobilizing ability (c.m.a.). SCP2* has a c. 1000-fold increased c.m.a. compared with SCP2. Interestingly the plasmid, named SCP2165, shows a c.m.a. from 5x10(-2) to 1x10(-1) which is 50-100-fold higher than that described for crosses involving SCP2*. CONCLUSIONS: SCP2165 is a SCP2 derivative plasmid with the highest c.m.a. so far described for SCP2 derivative plasmids. PFGE, under conditions we used, seems to be a fast way to identify large circular plasmids in Streptomyces strains. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Further knowledge of the SCP2 family may allow the construction of improved SCP2-derived cloning vectors. SCP2165 could be a potential tool for conjugational transfer of gene clusters between different Streptomyces species. 相似文献

Abstract A linear plasmid was isolated from a strain of Streptomyces rimosus . This plasmid was separated by agarose gel electrophoresis and its size, about 43 kb, determined both by this method and by electron microscopy. The cleavage pattern of the linear plasmid with 5 restriction endonucleases is given. A protein, which is removed by proteinase K, is probably associated to this plasmid. By ethidium bromides or acridine orange treatment we obtained mutants which had lost their aerial mycelium and their linear plasmid. 相似文献

Summary We identified a DNA element of length about 1 kb that is present in two copies in the chromosome of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and is also present on the plasmid SCP1 which has been carefully defined genetically, but never isolated as extrachromosomal DNA.A copy of the element is close (within 5 kb) of a gene coding for an extracellular agarase in the chromosome of S. coelicolor A3(2) and in an NF strain, in which SCP1 has integrated into the chromosome, the agarase gene has been deleted. The element has properties reminiscent of Insertion Sequences in Escherichia coli, but it is not yet know if it can transpose. 相似文献

The giant linear plasmid SCP1 can integrate into the central region of the linear chromosome of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2). Nucleotide sequence analysis around the target site for SCP1 integration in strain M145 identified a total of five copies of four insertion sequences (ISs) in a 6.5-kb DNA stretch. Three of the four (IS468, IS469, and IS470) are new IS elements, and the other is IS466. All of these elements contain one open reading frame which encodes a transposase-like protein. Two copies of IS468 (IS468A and -B) are tandemly aligned at the left end of the cluster. Following these, IS469 and IS466 are located in a tail-to-tail orientation with 69.3% identity to each other. IS470 is located at the right end of the cluster. The activities of IS466 and IS468 were demonstrated by transposition experiments and sequence comparison of several copies, respectively. 相似文献

Integrated structures of the linear plasmid SCP1 in two bidirectional donor strains of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The linear plasmid SCP1 is integrated into the central region of the chromosome of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2). The integrated structures of SCP1 in two bidirectional donor strains, 2612 and A634, were analyzed by cloning and sequencing of the junctions between the SCP1 DNA and the chromosomal DNA. In the NF (normal fertility) strain 2612, SCP1 is integrated in a right-handed direction into ORF-X at the left end of the IS cluster in AseI fragment E. An almost intact left end of SCP1 is retained, while the right terminal inverted repeat (TIR-R) of SCP1 and a 33-kb chromosomal DNA segment including the IS cluster are deleted. In the NF-like strain A634, SCPI is also integrated into AseI fragment E in a left-handed direction. The left junction is composed of IS466 with complete deletion of TIR-R of SCP1, and the right junction is located at the left end of IS468A* with half of TIR-L being deleted. During the integration event, a 5.4-kb chromosomal DNA segment including IS468A, IS468B, IS469 and IS466A was duplicated so that this sequence is now present on both sides of SCP1. Since 2612 and A634 exhibit a similar bidirectional gradient of gene transfer, it is surprising that their chromosomal structures are so different. 相似文献

Linear plasmids and chromosomes of Streptomyces carry terminal proteins (TPs) covalently attached to the 5' ends of the DNA. Most known telomeres are conserved in primary sequence and in the potential secondary structures formed during replication. The TP that caps these telomeres is also highly conserved and its coding gene, tpg, is present in all Streptomyces chromosomes and some linear plasmids. Linear plasmid SCP1 contains atypical telomere sequences and no tpg homologue, and can replicate in the absence of tpg, suggesting that it carries a novel TP gene. To isolate the TP on the SCP1 telomeres, we constructed a multicopy mini-SCP1 plasmid. The TP capping the plasmid was isolated and subjected to tryptic digestion and mass spectrometric analysis, and the results indicated that the TP was encoded by an open reading frame (ORF), SCP1.127 (tpc), on SCP1. Of the two ORFs upstream of tpc, SCP1.125 (tac) but not SCP1.126 was essential for replication of mini-SCP1. The Tac-Tpc system of SCP1 represents a convergently evolved novel telomere-capping system of Streptomyces linear replicons. 相似文献

The linear plasmid SCP1 of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) is one of the genetically more studied linear streptomycete replicons. Although the genetics of SCP1 and its interaction with the host chromosome have been analyzed for nearly three decades no information exists on its replication. With the help of an ordered cosmid contig for the complete 360-kb element, we have localized a 5439-bp fragment from the central region that confers autonomous replication in Streptomyces lividans. The minimal origin contains two overlapping ORFs which are separated from an AT-rich region which might correspond to the replication start point. ORF1 revealed intensive similarity to a class of DNA-primase/helicases of actinophages and archael plasmids. In addition, we have identified a region in both terminal inverted repeats of SCP1 that shows significant homology to the transposable element Tn4811 located near the ends of the S. lividans 66 chromosome. 相似文献

The sequencing of the entire genetic complement of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) has been completed with the determination of the 365,023 bp sequence of the linear plasmid SCP1. Remarkably, the functional distribution of SCP1 genes somewhat resembles that of the chromosome: predicted gene products/functions include ECF sigma factors, antibiotic biosynthesis, a gamma-butyrolactone signalling system, members of the actinomycete-specific Wbl class of regulatory proteins and 14 secreted proteins. Some of these genes are among the 18 that contain a TTA codon, making them targets for the developmentally important tRNA encoded by the bldA gene. RNA analysis and gene fusions showed that one of the TTA-containing genes is part of a large bldA-dependent operon, the gene products of which include three proteins isolated from the spore surface by detergent washing (SapC, D and E), and several probable metabolic enzymes. SCP1 shows much evidence of recombinational interactions with other replicons and transposable elements during its history. For example, it has two sets of partitioning genes (which may explain why an integrated copy of SCP1 partially suppressed the defective partitioning of a parAB-deleted chromosome during sporulation). SCP1 carries a cluster of probable transfer determinants and genes encoding likely DNA polymerase III subunits, but it lacks an obvious candidate gene for the terminal protein associated with its ends. This may be related to atypical features of its end sequences. 相似文献

Nucleotide sequence analysis of the unusually long terminal inverted repeats of a giant linear plasmid, SCP1. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
SCP1 is a giant linear plasmid of 350 kb coding for the methylenomycin biosynthetic genes in Streptomyces coelicolor. The unusually long terminal inverted repeats present on both ends of SCP1 were analyzed on the nucleotide sequence level. Analysis of six clones containing the terminal 0.35-kb XbaI fragment revealed a slight heterogeneity in the nucleotide sequences of the SCP1 ends. Moreover, it was indicated that this fragment contained seven palindromic inverted repeats and a GT-rich region in the 5'-end strand. The size of the terminal inverted repeats was determined to be 81 kb by the cloning and sequencing of their end-points. An insertion sequence, IS466 was shown to be present just at the end of the right terminal inverted repeat. 相似文献

Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) strain 2106 carries a 1.85-Mb linear plasmid, SCP1'-cysD, in addition to a 7.2-Mb linear chromosome. Macrorestriction analysis indicated that both linear DNAs are hybrids of the wild-type chromosome and the linear plasmid SCP1 on each side. Nucleotide sequencing of the fusion junctions revealed no homology between the recombination regions. SCP1'-cysD contains an SCP1 telomere and a chromosomal telomere at each end and therefore does not have terminal inverted repeats. In addition, SCP1'-cysD could not be eliminated from strain 2106 by various mutagenic treatments. Thus, we concluded that both the 7.2-Mb chromosome and SCP1'-cysD are chimeric chromosomes generated by a single crossover of the wild-type chromosome and SCP1. This may be regarded as a model of chromosomal duplication in genome evolution. 相似文献

Summary Mobilization of the plasmid ColE1 from cells containing a conjugative plasmid (such as F) requires the synthesis of ColE1 mob proteins, and the presence, in cis, of bom (basis of mobility), a region of ColE1 containing the origin of transfer (oriT). The process of ColE1 transfer is thought to resemble that of the conjugative plasmid F, although the plasmids share little sequence homology. In F, conjugation is preceded by a strand-specific nicking event at oriT. The nicked strand is then conducted to the recipient with the 5 end leading. This is believed also to occur with ColE1, but direct biochemical confirmation has been precluded by its small size (6.65 kb). To test this hypothesis genetically, a novel method, using a dv-based vector, has been devised to site-specifically integrate bom (or any other cloned sequence) into the chromosome of Escherichia coli. When provided with suitable mobilizing plasmids, such strains were found to transfer the chromosome in a polar way. From these data, the orientation of transfer of ColE1 was deduced and shown to be analogous to F. 相似文献

Comparative analysis of the Streptomyces chromosome sequences, between Streptomyces coelicolor, Streptomyces avermitilis, and Streptomyces ambofaciens ATCC23877 (whose partial sequence is released in this study), revealed a highly compartmentalized genetic organization of their genome. Indeed, despite the presence of specific genomic islands, the central part of the chromosome appears highly syntenic. In contrast, the chromosome of each species exhibits large species-specific terminal regions (from 753 to 1,393 kb), even when considering closely related species (S. ambofaciens and S. coelicolor). Interestingly, the size of the central conserved region between species decreases as the phylogenetic distance between them increases, whereas the specific terminal fraction reciprocally increases in size. Between highly syntenic central regions and species-specific chromosomal parts, there is a notable degeneration of synteny due to frequent insertions/deletions. This reveals a massive and constant genomic flux (from lateral gene transfer and DNA rearrangements) affecting the terminal contingency regions. We speculate that a gradient of recombination rate (i.e., insertion/deletion events) toward the extremities is the force driving the exclusion of essential genes from the terminal regions (i.e., chromosome compartmentalization) and generating a fast gene turnover for strong adaptation capabilities. 相似文献

A 23-kb fragment of the Streptomyces coelicolor chromosome spanning the dnaA region has been isolated as a cosmid clone. Nucleotide sequence analysis of a 5-kb portion shows that the genes for the RNase P protein (rnpA), ribosomal protein L34 (rpmH), the replication initiator protein (dnaA), and the beta subunit of DNA polymerase III (dnaN) are present in the highly conserved gene arrangement found in all eubacterial genomes studied so far. The dnaA-dnaN intergenic region is approximately 1 kb and contains a cluster of at least 12 DnaA boxes with a consensus sequence of TTGTCCACA matching the consensus DnaA box in the phylogenetically related Micrococcus luteus. Two DnaA boxes precede the dnaA sequence. We propose that the chromosomal origin (oriC) of S. coelicolor lies between dnaA and dnaN. In related work, J. Zakrzewska-Czerwinska and H. Schrempf (J. Bacteriol. 174:2688-2693, 1992) have identified the homologous sequence from the closely-related Streptomyces lividans as capable of self-replication. 相似文献
