The aspartate pathway of Streptomyces clavuligerus is an important primary metabolic pathway which provides substrates for β-lactam synthesis. In this study, the hom gene which encodes homoserine dehydrogenase was cloned from the cephamycin C producer S. clavuligerus NRRL 3585 and characterized. The fully sequenced open reading frame encodes 433 amino acids with a deduced M
r of 44.9 kDa. The gene was heterologously expressed in the auxotroph mutant Escherichia coli CGSC 5075 and the recombinant protein was purified. The cloned gene was used to construct a plasmid containing a hom disruption cassette which was then transformed into S. clavuligerus. A hom mutant of S. clavuligerus was obtained by insertional inactivation via double crossover, and the effect of hom gene disruption on cephamycin C yield was investigated by comparing antibiotic levels in culture broths of this mutant and
in the parental strain. Disruption of hom gene resulted in up to 4.3-fold and twofold increases in intracellular free l-lysine concentration and specific cephamycin C production, respectively, during stationary phase in chemically defined medium. 相似文献

When dissolved oxygen (DO) was maintained at saturation level during batch fermentations of Streptomyces clavuligerus (NRRL 3585), the accumulation of the intermediate penicillin N was lowered while formation of the end product cephamycin C was increased relative to fermentations without DO control. The specific activity of the penicillin ring-expansion enzyme deacetoxycephalosporin C synthase (DAOCS) was increased 2.3-fold under oxygen saturated conditions, whereas the penicillin ring-cyclizing enzyme isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) showed only a 1.3-fold increase. Thus oxygen derepression of DAOCS appears to be an important regulatory mechanism in the conversion of penicillin N to cephamycin C in S. clavuligerus. IPNS, an early acting enzyme in cephamycin C biosynthesis, and DAOCS, which acts late in the pathway, both disappeared from cell extracts at 60 h, just prior to cessation of cephamycin production. 相似文献

The level of lysine-6-aminotransferase (encoded by the lat gene), an enzyme that commits lysine to the cephamycin biosynthesis pathway, is very low in wild type Nocardia lactamdurans. Two lat overexpression systems (pAMEXlat and pSAFlat) were constructed to express the promoterless lat gene of N. lactamdurans from the strong promoters amyP (of the α-amylase gene) and safP (of the secretion activating factor gene) of Streptomyces griseus. Both constructions led to very high levels of lysine-6-aminotransferase (between 8- and 15-fold) in the cells. Expression
of lat from the amy promoter was optimal in glycerol-containing medium and was negatively regulated by glucose. The high levels of lysine-6-aminotransferase
resulted in a 50–200% increase in cephamycin C production in the standard fermentation conditions. Onset of cephamycin C biosynthesis
occurred at the same time in control and in lat-overexpressing strains, but the cephamycin production rate was clearly higher in transformants overexpressing the lat gene. Furthermore, HPLC analysis of cephamycin C in the culture broths revealed an early depletion of biosynthetic intermediates
and an accumulation of cephamycin C when the lat gene was overexpressed. These results indicate that lysine-6-aminotransferase activity is limiting for cephamycin C biosynthesis
under some culture conditions.

We constructed four recombinant plasmids to enhance the production of clavulanic acid (CA) inStreptomyces clavuligerus NRRL3585: (1) plBRHL1, which includesccaR, a pathway-specific regulatory gene involved in cephamycin C and CA biosynthesis; (2) plBRHL2, containingclaR, again a regulatory gene, which controls the late steps of CA biosynthesis; (3) pGIBR containingafsR-p, a global regulatory gene fromStreptomyces peucetius, and (4) pKS, which harbors all of the genes (ccaR/claR/afsR-p). The plasmids were expressed inS. clavuligerus NRRL3585 along with theermE
* promoter. All of them enhanced the production of CA; 2.5-fold overproduction for plBRHL1, 1.5-fold for plBRHL2, 1.6-fold
for pGIBR, and 1.5-fold for pKS compared to the wild type. 相似文献

Cephamycin C production was blocked in wild-type cultures of the clavulanic acid-producing organism Streptomyces clavuligerus by targeted disruption of the gene (lat) encoding lysine epsilon-aminotransferase. Specific production of clavulanic acid increased in the lat mutants derived from the wild-type strain by 2- to 2.5-fold. Similar beneficial effects on clavulanic acid production were noted in previous studies when gene disruption was used to block the production of the non-clavulanic acid clavams produced by S. clavuligerus. Therefore, mutations in lat and in cvm1, a gene involved in clavam production, were introduced into a high-titer industrial strain of S. clavuligerus to create a double mutant with defects in production of both cephamycin C and clavams. Production of both cephamycin C and non-clavulanic acid clavams was eliminated in the double mutant, and clavulanic acid titers increased about 10% relative to those of the parental strain. This represents the first report of the successful use of genetic engineering to eliminate undesirable metabolic pathways in an industrial strain used for the production of an antibiotic important in human medicine. 相似文献

Streptomyces clavuligerus is an important industrial strain that produces a number of antibiotics, including clavulanic acid and cephamycin C. A high-quality draft genome sequence of the S. clavuligerus NRRL 3585 strain was produced by employing a hybrid approach that involved Sanger sequencing, Roche/454 pyrosequencing, optical mapping, and partial finishing. Its genome, comprising four linear replicons, one chromosome, and four plasmids, carries numerous sets of genes involved in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, including a variety of antibiotics. 相似文献

Clavulanic acid (CA) is an inhibitor of beta-lactamase that is produced from Streptomyces clavuligerus NRRL3585 and is used in combination with other antibiotics in clinical treatments. In order to increase the production of CA, the replicative and integrative expressions of ccaR (encoding for a specific regulator of the CA biosynthetic operon) and cas2 (encoding for the rate-limiting enzyme in the CA biosynthetic pathway) were applied. Six recombinant plasmids were designed for this study. The pIBRHL1, pIBRHL3, and pIBRHL13 were constructed for overexpression, whereas pNQ3, pNQ2, and pNQ1 were constructed for chromosomal integration with ccaR, cas2, and ccaR-cas2, respectively. All of these plasmids were transformed into S. clavuligerus NRRL3585. CA production in transformants resulted in a significantly enhanced amount greater than that of the wild type, a 2.25-fold increase with pIBRHL1, a 9.28-fold increase with pNQ3, a 5.06-fold increase with pIBRHL3, a 2.93-fold increase with pNQ2 integration, a 5.79-fold increase with pIBRHL13, and a 23.8-fold increase with pNQ1. The integrative pNQ1 strain has been successfully applied to enhance production. 相似文献

Streptomyces clavuligerus, Streptomyces lipmanii and Nocardia (formerly Streptomyces) lactamdurans are Gram-positive mycelial bacteria that produce medically important beta-lactam antibiotics (penicillins and cephalosporins including cephamycins) that are synthesized through a series of reactions starting from lysine, cysteine and valine. L-lysine epsilon-aminotransferase (LAT) is the initial enzyme in the two-step conversion of L-lysine to L-alpha-aminoadipic acid, a specific precursor of all penicillins and cephalosporins. Whereas S. clavuligerus uses LAT for cephalosporin production, it uses the cadaverine pathway for catabolism when lysine is the nitrogen source for growth. Although the cadaverine path is present in all examined streptomycetes, the LAT pathway appears to exist only in beta-lactam-producing strains. Genetically increasing the level of LAT enhances the production of cephamycin. LAT is the key rate-limiting enzyme in cephalosporin biosynthesis in S. clavuligerus strain NRRL 3585. This review will summarize information on this important enzyme. 相似文献

Two strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 were grown in tryptic soy broth (TSB, pH 7.1) supplemented with 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10% ethanol at 30 degrees C for up to 54 h. Growth rates in TSB supplemented with 0, 2.5, and 5.0% ethanol decreased with an increase in ethanol concentration. Growth was not observed in TSB supplemented with 7.5 or 10% ethanol. The pH of TSB containing 5.0% ethanol decreased to 5.8 within 12 h and then increased to 7.0 at 54 h. The ethanol content in TSB supplemented with 2.5 or 5.0% ethanol did not change substantially during the first 36 h of incubation but decreased slightly thereafter, indicating utilization or degradation of ethanol by both strains. Glucose was depleted in TSB supplemented with 0, 2.5, or 5.0% ethanol within 12 h. Cells grown under ethanol stress contained a higher amount of fatty acids. With the exceptions of cis-oleic acid and nonadecanoic acid, larger amounts of fatty acid were present in stationary-phase cells of the two strains grown in TSB supplemented with 5.0% ethanol for 30 h than in cells grown in TSB without ethanol for 22 h. The trans-oleic acid content was 10-fold higher in the cells grown in TSB with 5.0% ethanol than those grown in TSB without ethanol. In contrast, cis-oleic acid was not detected in ethanol-stressed cells but was present at concentrations of 0.32 and 0.36 mg/g of cells of the two strains grown in TSB without ethanol. Protein content was higher in ethanol-stressed cells than in nonstressed cells. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis protein profiles varied qualitatively as affected by the strain and the presence of ethanol in TSB. An ethanol-mediated protein (28 kDa) was observed in the ethanol-stressed cells but not in control cells. It is concluded that the two test strains of E. coli O157:H7 underwent phenotypic modifications in cellular fatty acid composition and protein profiles in response to ethanol stress. The potential for cross protection against subsequent stresses applied in food preservation technologies as a result of these changes is under investigation. 相似文献

Analysis of thymidylate synthase gene amplification and of mRNA levels in the cell cycle 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We report that the gene for thymidylate synthase (TS) is amplified in the mouse cell line L1210:C15 that was selectively grown in increasing concentrations of the competitive inhibitor of thymidylate synthase, CB3717. The gene is amplified 50-fold compared to the parental cell line. Amplification has not been accompanied by any major rearrangements, and the increase in gene copy number is reflected in elevation of thymidylate synthase mRNA levels. The amplification is relatively stable as there was only a 2- to 3-fold decrease in the number of amplified TS genes when cells were grown in the absence of selection for 375 generations. We also observe a 30- to 40-fold increase in number of copies of the dihydrofolate reductase gene with 7-fold elevation of the RNA product, and we suggest that this may be due to cross-inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase by CB3717. Thymidylate synthase mRNA levels in L1210 and L1210:C15 show no variation within the different phases of the cell cycle but are significantly reduced during quiescence. 相似文献

Summary Compared to controls, a maltose-fed fermentation ofStreptomyces clavuligerus showed a 2-fold reduction in desacetoxycephalosporin C synthase activity and in the production of the antibiotic, cephamycin C. Accumulation of the pathway intermediate, penicillin N occurred in the control fermentations but not in the maltose-fed culture, indicating that the carbon source was also regulating steps earlier in the pathway.Since the dissolved oxygen concentration was effectively maintained at almost constant levels in both the controls and maltose-fed fermentations, the observed maltose interference with cephamycin C biosynthesis was not related to the aeration condition of the actively growingS. clavuligerus culture. 相似文献

The repressor RNA, micF RNA, is regulated by temperature, osmolarity, and other stress conditions during growth of Escherichia coli. Northern (RNA) blot analyses showed that levels of micF RNA differ widely in various ompB mutant strains when cells are grown at 24 degrees C in LB broth. For example, relative to the parental strain MC4100, the ompR101 mutant strain (which contains no functional OmpR) had about a 10-fold reduction in micF RNA, whereas the envZ11 strain showed about a 5-fold increase. At 37 degrees C, however, micF RNA levels in the ompR101 and envZ11 strains and other ompB mutants differed by less than two-fold compared with the level in strain MC4100, thus indicating that a factor(s) independent of the ompB locus regulates micF RNA expression with temperature increase and that there is an additional control mechanism(s) which maintains the levels of micF RNA in these mutants close to that of the wild type during growth at high temperatures. In a plasmid strain containing the micF gene but without the upstream OmpR-binding site, steady-state levels of micF RNA increased with temperature increase but did not change with osmolarity increase. This showed that osmolal regulation but not temperature regulation of micF depends on these upstream sequences and suggested that while osmolal regulation of the micF gene depends on OmpR, thermal regulation does not. 相似文献

Control of pyrimidine formation was examined in Pseudomonas fulva ATCC 31418. Pyrimidine supplementation lowered pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway enzyme activities in cells grown on glucose
or succinate as a carbon source indicating possible repression of enzyme synthesis. Pyrimidine limitation experiments were
conducted using an orotidine 5′-monophosphate decarboxylase mutant strain isolated in this study. Compared to uracil-supplemented,
glucose-grown mutant cells, pyrimidine limitation of this strain caused aspartate transcarbamoylase, dihydroorotase, dihydroorotate
dehydrogenase and orotate phosphoribosyltransferase activities to increase about 6-, 13-, 3-, 15-fold, respectively, which
confirmed regulation of enzyme synthesis by pyrimidines. At the level of enzyme activity, transcarbamoylase activity in Ps. fulva was strongly inhibited by pyrophosphate, CTP, GTP and GDP under saturating substrate concentrations. 相似文献

A Streptomyces clavuligerus ccaR::aph strain, which has a disruption in the regulatory gene ccaR, does not produce cephamycin C or clavulanic acid, but does produce a bioactive compound that was identified as holomycin by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and infrared and mass spectrometry. S. clavuligerus strains with disruptions in different genes of the clavulanic acid pathway fall into three groups with respect to holomycin biosynthesis. (i) Mutants with mutations in the early steps of the pathway blocked in the gene ceaS (pyc) (encoding carboxyethylarginine synthase), bls (encoding a beta-lactam synthetase), or open reading frame 6 (ORF6; coding for an acetyltransferase of unknown function) are holomycin nonproducers. (ii) Mutants blocked in the regulatory gene ccaR or claR or blocked in the last gene of the pathway encoding clavulanic acid reductase (car) produce holomycin at higher levels than the wild-type strain. (iii) Mutants with disruption in cyp (coding for cytochrome P450), ORF12, and ORF15, genes that appear to be involved in the conversion of clavaminic acid into clavaldehyde or in secretion steps, produce up to 250-fold as much holomycin as the wild-type strain. An assay for holomycin synthetase was developed. This enzyme forms holomycin from holothin by using acetyl coenzyme A as an acetyl group donor. The holomycin synthase activities in the different clavulanic acid mutants correlate well with their production of holomycin. 相似文献
