The complex of pesticidal metabolites produced byStreptomyces griseus LKS-1 consists of a peptide antibiotic (A), nonactic acids (B), macrotetrolides (C), pyrrolizines (D), and of cycloheximide. The latter unwanted phytotoxic compound was eliminated by treatment with mutagens. Combined approaches,
including both genetic and physiological manipulations, resulted in the following alterations in the biosynthetic capacity:
(1) A more than 80-fold increase in the production of C under a substantial decrease in the yields ofA, B andD, the ratio of the components ofC being steered toward the required more active ones; (2) a more than 300-fold increase in the production ofB under suppression of the formation ofA andC: (3) a 10-fold increase in the yields ofD under suppression ofA andC; (4 a significant increase in the yields ofA with eliminatingB, C andD. The level of inorganic phosphate in fermentation media and the sensitivity of the organism to carbon catabolite repression
were important factors participating in the regulation of the above biosynthetic processes. 相似文献

Accumulating data have shown that the metabolites with a -butyrolactone ring functions as an autoregulatory factor or a microbial hormone for the expression of various phenotypes not only in a variety ofStreptomyces spp. but also in the distantly related bacteria. A-factor, as a representative of this type of autoregulators, triggers streptomycin biosynthesis and cellular differentiation inStreptomyces griseus. A model for the A-factor regulatory cascade on the basis of recent work is as follows. At an early step in the A-factor regulatory relay, the positive A-factor signal is first received by an A-factor receptor protein that is comparable in every aspect to eukaryotic hormone receptors, and then, via one or more regulatory steps, transmitted to an A-factor-responsive protein that binds to the upstream activation sequence of thestrR gene, a regulatory gene in the streptomycin biosynthetic gene cluster. The StrR protein thus induced appears to activate the other streptomycin biosynthetic genes. This review summarizes the characteristics of A-factor as a microbial hormone and the A-factor regulatory relay leading to streptomycin production. 相似文献

Incubation experiments using washed cells and toluene treated cells ofStreptomyces garyphalus showed that O-acetyl-L-serine and hydroxyurea are intermediates in the biosynthesis ofD-cycloserine. The formation of [14C]O-ureidoserine from O-acetyl-L-serine and hydroxyurea was demonstrated by incubating an enzyme solution with14C-labelled substrates. Desalted cell-free extract catalyzed the conversion of O-ureido-D-serine toD-cycloserine in a reaction requiring ATP and Mg2+. The results suggested the following pathway forD-cycloserine biosynthesis. 相似文献

Summary Chemically-defined media were developed for rapamycin production byStreptomyces hygroscopicus. Thirty-five carbon sources were tested for their effect on production. Eight failed to support growth and seven appeared to repress or inhibit rapamycin formation. The best combination of two carbon sources were 2% fructose and 0.5% mannose. Acetate and propionate, which are known to contribute most of the carbon atoms of the lactone ring, were unsatisfactory for growth and/or rapamycin production.This paper is dedicated to Professor Herman Jan Phaff in honor of his 50 years of active research which still continues. 相似文献

A chemically defined medium was developed which satisfies the nutritional needs of theStreptomyces hygroscopicus strain producing the immunosuppressant rapamycin. More than a doubling of rapamycin biosynthesis was observed on addition
of 57 mmol/L of exogenous shikimate. The previously observed inhibition of the synthesis by phenylalanine was not reversed
by shikimate.

Summary Inhibitory action of DL-ethionine on 4-0-methylation and 10-COOH-esterification of the anthracyclinone ring inStreptomyces coeruleorubidus causes the formation of substances of the carminomycinone series, a concomitant drop in the production of daunomycinone derivatives and suppression of the biosynthesis of -rhodomycinone. The extent of inhibition depends on inhibitor concentration and the time of its addition to cultures. Ho formation of anthracyclinone ethyl-derivatives was found. 相似文献

ATP diphosphohydrolase activity and inorganic pyrophosphatase reached two maxima during cultivation of the low- and high-producing
variant ofStreptomyces aureofaciens under conditions of phosphate limitation,i.e. after 30 and 70 h of cultivation. Increased levels of inorganic phosphate in a medium inhibitory to biosynthesis of chlortetracycline
markedly decreased the levels of both enzymes. The ATP diphosphohydrolase activity was detected both in the supernatant and
membrane fractions of the cell-free preparation of the mycelium. 相似文献

Summary The interference by glycerol and other carbon sources with production of cephem antibiotics by resting cells ofStreptomyces clawligerus was found to be related to aeration conditions. When a low cell density or increased aeration was used, carbon sources did not have any effect on the rate of production. 相似文献

AfsR2, originally identified fromStreptomyces lividans, is a global regulatory protein which stimulates antibiotic biosynthesis. Through its stable chromosomal integration, the
high level of gene expression ofafsR2 significantly induced antibiotic production as well as the sporulation ofS. lividans, implying the presence of yet-uncharacterized AfsR2-target proteins. To identify and evaluate the putative AfsR2-target proteins
involved in antibiotic regulation, the proteomics-driven approach was applied to the wild-typeS. lividans and theafsR2-integrated actinorhodin overproducing strain. The 2D gel-electrophoresis gave approximately 340 protein spots showing different
protein expression patterns between these twoS. lividans strains. Further MALDI-TOF analysis revealed several AfsR2-target proteins, including glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase,
putative phosphate transport system regulator, guanosine pentaphosphate synthetase/polyribonucleotide nucleotidyltransferase,
and superoxide dismutase, which suggests that the AfsR2 should be a pleiotropic regulatory protein which controls differential
expressions of various kinds of genes inStreptomyces species. 相似文献

Summary It is known that excess ammonium supply decreases cephalosporin production and represses cephalosporin synthases. We wondered whether an additional important effect could be inhibition of synthase action by alanine. We had previously shown that ammonium addition induced alanine dehydrogenase and increased intracellular alanine and that alanine could inhibit resting cell synthesis of cephalosporins. In the present work we confirm the alanine inhibition of antibiotic production by resting cells. We foundl-alanine inhibited three of the four synthases tested: ACV synthetase, cyclase and expandase; the epimerase was not inhibited. These data suggest that interference in cephalosporin production by growth in ammonium salts involves synthase inhibition by intracellular alanine, in addition to the known role of ammonium in synthase repression. 相似文献

5,5-Diethylbarbituric acid (barbital) stimulates the production of anthracycline antibiotic called galirubins inStreptomyces galilaeus in dependence on the strain, concentration and cultivatio conditions. The stimulation is more pronounced (up to 300%) in
the low-producing strain than in the production mutant. Under conditions of limited aeration the effect of barbital is increased
in both strain In the production strain barbital narrows the spectrum of metabolites produced. Higher barbital concet trations
inhibit growth of the mycelium of both strains and decrease the formation of free anthracyclinone 相似文献

The relationship was studied between the energy metabolism of the actinomyceteStreptomyces aureofaciens and the biosynthesis of chlorotetracycline by this organism. The energy charge values in a culture of low-production strain were almost identical with those of a production variant but the total sum of adenylates was about 10 times higher. In the stationary growth phase both strains evinced a drop in energy charge values followed by a rise to the original level. An increase in the concentration of inorganic phosphate in fermentation medium caused a suppression of antibiotic formation in the lowproduction strain and further rise in the total adenylate level. The expression of the energy charge inStreptomyces aureofaciens acquires a complex character owing to the participation, apart from the adenylate system, of high-molecular polyphosphates as energy donors and the probable lack of a regulating mechanism such as the adenylate kinase reaction. 相似文献

The in vitro activity of the renal galactolipid sulfotransferase and the level of sulfated glycolipids in the rat kidney have been correlated as a function of age. The galactolipid sulfotransferase was found to be greatly reduced in the young as compared with the adult animal. The relatively minor changes in the sulfated glycolipid content of the kidney with age suggests that an increase in sulfoglycolipid turnover occurs during growth. An inhibitory activity was detected in the homogenate supernate of the young animal capable of reducing the in vitro sulfotransferase activity of the adult. Assay of the human renal galactolipid sulfotransferase showed that this enzyme activity is deleted in samples of the blastematous form of Wilm's renal tumor. The results suggest that the rate of synthesis of renal sulfoglycolipids may prove a marker of renal development, perhaps by post translational regulation. 相似文献

Metabolism of phospholipids has been investigated inStreptomyces griseus by pulse-labeling of phospholipids with32P-orthophosphate and subsequent chasing of the radioactivity. It is clear from the results that inositol-containing phospholipids
have the highest rate of biosynthesis with high turnover followed by cardiolipin and phosphatidylethanolamine. Phosphatidylethanolamine
appears to be a stable component of the phospholipids. 相似文献
