In contrast to the Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria such as Streptomyces lack a mucopolysaccharide cell wall which allows them to produce and secrete a variety of proteins directly into their environment. In an effort to understand and eventually exploit the synthesis and secretion of proteins by Streptomyces, we identified and characterized two naturally occurring abundantly produced proteins in culture supernatants of Streptomyces lividans and Streptomyces longisporus. We purified these 10-kDa proteins and obtained partial amino acid sequence information which was then used to design oligonucleotide probes in order to clone their genes. Analysis of the sequence data indicated that these proteins were related to each other and to several other previously characterized Streptomyces protein protease inhibitors. We demonstrate that both proteins are protein protease inhibitors with specificity for trypsin-like enzymes. The presumptive signal peptidase cleavage sites and subsequent aminopeptidase products of each protein are characterized. Finally, we show that the cloned genes contain all of the information necessary to direct synthesis and secretion of the proteins by Streptomyces spp. or Escherichia coli. 相似文献

Streptomyces is an interesting host for the secretory production of recombinant proteins because of its natural ability to secrete high levels of active proteins into the culture broth and the availability of extensive fermentation knowledge. In bacterial expression systems, heterologous protein secretion has, so far, almost exclusively been investigated using signal peptides that direct the secretion to the Sec pathway. In this study, we assessed the possibility of the Streptomyces lividans twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway to secrete the human proteins tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha and interleukin (IL) 10 by fusing the coding sequences of mature hTNFalpha and hIL10 to the twin-arginine signal peptides of S. lividans xylanase C (XlnC) and Streptomyces antibioticus tyrosinase. Both proteins were secreted and this secretion was blocked in the DeltatatB and DeltatatC single mutants, indicating that the transport of hTNFalpha and hIL10 could be directed through the Tat pathway. Secretion levels of hTNFalpha and hIL10, however, were lower for Tat-dependent than for Sec-dependent transport using the Sec-dependent signal peptide of the Streptomyces venezuelae subtilisin inhibitor. Surprisingly, Sec-dependent transport was enhanced in the tatB deletion strain. This was especially interesting in the case of hIL10, where Sec-dependent transport of hIL10 was at least 15 times higher in the DeltatatB mutant than in the wild-type strain. 相似文献

Genome-based signal peptide predictions classified Streptomyces coelicolor as the microorganism that secretes the most proteins through the twin-arginine translocation (Tat)-dependent secretion pathway. Availability of a DeltatatC mutant of the closely related strain Streptomyces lividans impaired Tat-dependent protein secretion and enabled identification of many extracellular proteins that are secreted via the Tat pathway. Proteomic techniques were applied to analyze proteins from the supernatants of log-phase cultures. Since the bacterial secretome depends mainly on the carbon sources available during growth, xylose, glucose, chitin, and soil extracts were used. A total of 63 proteins were identified, among which 7 were predicted by the TATscan program, and 20 were not predicted but contained a potential Tat signal motif. Thirteen proteins having no signal sequence could be co-transported by Tat-dependent proteins because the genes that encode these proteins are in close proximity in the genome. Finally, the presence of 23 proteins lacking signal peptides was difficult to explain. More secreted proteins could be identified as Tat substrates in varying carbon sources. 相似文献

Non-optimal (rare) codons have been suggested to reduce translation rate and facilitate secretion in Escherichia coli. In this study, the complete genome analysis of non-optimal codon usage in secretory signal sequences and non-secretory sequences of Streptomyces coelicolor was performed. The result showed that there was a higher proportion of non-optimal codons in secretory signal sequences than in non-secretory sequences. The increased tendency was more obvious when tested with the experimental data of secretory proteins from proteomics analysis. Some non-optimal codons for Arg (AGA, CGU and CGA), Ile (AUA) and Lys (AAA) were significantly over presented in the secretary signal sequences. It may reveal that a balanced non-optimal codon usage was necessary for protein secretion and expression in Streptomyces. 相似文献

The recently discovered bacterial twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway was investigated in Streptomyces lividans, a gram-positive organism with a high secretion capacity. The presence of one tatC and two hcf106 homologs in the S. lividans genome together with the several precursor proteins with a twin-arginine motif in their signal peptide suggested the presence of the twin-arginine translocation pathway in the S. lividans secretome. To demonstrate its functionality, a tatC deletion mutant was constructed. This mutation impaired the translocation of the Streptomyces antibioticus tyrosinase, a protein that forms a complex with its transactivator protein before export. Also the chimeric construct pre-TorA-23K, known to be exclusively secreted via the Tat pathway in Escherichia coli, could be translocated in wild-type S. lividans but not in the tatC mutant. In contrast, the secretion of the Sec-dependent S. lividans subtilisin inhibitor was not affected. This study therefore demonstrates that also in general in Streptomyces spp. the Tat pathway is functional. Moreover, this Tat pathway can translocate folded proteins, and the E. coli TorA signal peptide can direct Tat-dependent transport in S. lividans. 相似文献

In order to evaluate the expression and secretion signals of the highly secreted subtilisin inhibitor of Streptomyces venezuelae CBS762.70 (VSI) for the production of heterologous proteins by Streptomyces lividans, mouse tumor necrosis factor alpha (mTNF) was chosen as a model protein. The mTNF cDNA was fused to the vsi signal sequence. The analysis of secretion by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and biological activity measurements revealed an efficient translocation of mTNF. Up to 300 mg of secreted biologically active mTNF per liter could be obtained in shaken-flask cultures. By analyzing the effects of mutations in the N region of the VSI signal peptide on secretion, we found that decreasing the +3 charge of the wild-type protein to +2 resulted in a 3- to 10-fold increase in secretion. 相似文献

The SCO5461 gene of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) codes for an ADP-ribosyltransferase enzyme that is predicted to be a transmembrane protein with an extracellular catalytic domain. PCR-targeted disruption of the gene resulted in a mutant that differentiated normally on complex SFM medium; however, morphological differentiation in minimal medium was significantly delayed and this phenotype was even more pronounced on osmotically enhanced minimal medium. The mutant did not sporulate when it was grown on R5 medium, however the normal morphological differentiation was restored when the strain was cultivated beside the wild-type S. coelicolor M145 strain. Comparison of the pattern of ADP-ribosylated proteins showed a difference between the mutant and the wild type, fewer modified proteins were present in the cellular crude extract of the mutant strain. These results support our previous suggestions that protein ADP-ribosylation is involved in the regulation of differentiation and antibiotic production and secretion in Streptomyces. 相似文献

Streptomyces is an interesting host for the secretory production of recombinant proteins because of its innate capacity to secrete proteins
at high level in the culture medium. In this report, we evaluated the importance of the phage-shock protein A (PspA) homologue
on the protein secretion yield in Streptomyces lividans. The PspA protein is supposed to play a role in the maintenance of the proton motive force (PMF). As the PMF is an energy
source for both Sec- and Tat-dependent secretion, we evaluated the influence of the PspA protein on both pathways by modulating
the pspA expression. Results indicated that pspA overexpression can improve the Tat-dependent protein secretion as illustrated for the Tat-dependent xylanase C and enhanced
green fluorescent protein (EGFP). The effect on Sec-dependent secretion was less pronounced and appeared to be protein dependent
as evidenced by the increase in subtilisin inhibitor (Sti-1) secretion but the lack of increase in human tumour necrosis factor
(hTNFα) secretion in a pspA-overexpressing strain. 相似文献

The majority of bacterial proteins are exported across the cytoplasmic membrane via the Sec pathway, but also the more recently discovered twin-arginine translocation (Tat) route seems to play an important role for protein secretion in Streptomyces lividans in whose genome tatA, tatB and tatC have been identified. In the present work we showed that simultaneous overproduction of TatABC improved the Tat-dependent secretion capacity as could be concluded from the increased amount of secreted xylanase C, an exclusive Tat-dependent substrate. This result demonstrates that next to the availability of energy to drive secretion, also the number of translocases can be rate-limiting for Tat-dependent secretion. On the other hand, tatABC overexpression was found to diminish secretion of the Sec-dependent proteins xylanase B and subtilisin inhibitor in S. lividans. These results reveal cross-talk between both pathways in S. lividans. 相似文献

Proteins secreted by Gram-positive bacteria are released into the culture medium with the obvious benefit that they usually retain their native conformation. This property makes these host cells potentially interesting for the production of recombinant proteins, as one can take full profit of established protocols for the purification of active proteins. Several state-of-the-art strategies to increase the yield of the secreted proteins will be discussed, using Streptomyces lividans as an example and compared with approaches used in some other host cells. It will be shown that approaches such as increasing expression and translation levels, choice of secretion pathway and modulation of proteins thereof, avoiding stress responses by changing expression levels of specific (stress) proteins, can be helpful to boost production yield. In addition, the potential of multi-omics approaches as a tool to understand the genetic background and metabolic fluxes in the host cell and to seek for new targets for strain and protein secretion improvement is discussed. It will be shown that S. lividans, along with other Gram-positive host cells, certainly plays a role as a production host for recombinant proteins in an economically viable way.

γ-Butyrolactones in Streptomyces are well recognized as bacterial hormones, and they affect secondary metabolism of Streptomyces. γ-Butyrolactone receptors are considered important regulatory proteins, and various γ-butyrolactone synthases and receptors have been reported in Streptomyces. Here, we characterized a new regulator, SCO0608, that interacted with SCB1 (γ-butyrolactone of Streptomyces coelicolor) and bound to the scbR/A and adpA promoters. The SCO0608 protein sequences are not similar to those of any known γ-butyrolactone binding proteins in Streptomyces such as ScbR from S. coelicolor or ArpA from Streptomyces griseus. Interestingly, SCO0608 functions as a repressor of antibiotic biosynthesis and spore formation in R5 complex media. We showed the existence of another type of γ-butyrolactone receptor in Streptomyces, and this SCO0608 was named ScbR-like γ-butyrolactone binding regulator (SlbR) in S. coelicolor. 相似文献

The membrane protein complex translocase mediates the translocation of bacterial proteins. In this complex, the SecY, SecE, and SecG proteins constitute an integral membrane domain. Sequence comparison revealed a potential secG-like gene in the gram-positive soil bacterium Streptomyces lividans. Chromosomal deletion of this gene resulted in a sporulation defect and an overall deficiency in secretion. The SecG-depleted strain was able to overproduce and secrete alpha-amylase, but the appearance of the oversynthesized protein outside the cell was delayed compared to the protein produced by the wildtype strain. SecG deficiency was found to result in more pronounced effects in S. lividans than in Bacillus subtilis or Escherichia coli. 相似文献

In recent years much attention has been given to the identification and characterisation of the key elements of the secretory
machinery of Streptomyces lividans, a non-pathogenic filamentous Gram-positive soil bacterium, whose metabolism is relatively well characterised and capable
of secreting large amounts of proteins when grown in laboratory conditions. The relevance of S. lividans from a commercial standpoint is due to its potential usefulness for the overproduction of secretory homologous and heterologous
proteins of interest. Therefore, this review focuses on the knowledge already obtained on the S. lividans secretion pathways. 相似文献

Heterogeneity of ribosomal proteins among Streptomyces species and its application to identification 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The ribosomal proteins from 11 Streptomyces strains representing various numerical taxonomic clusters were compared by two-dimensional PAGE. The protein patterns were specific for each species and were unaffected by acridine dye treatment, suggesting genetic stability of ribosomal proteins. An attempt was made to identify one strain of Streptomyces by both traditional taxonomic methods and analysis of the ribosomal protein patterns. Both methods identified the strain as Streptomyces lavendulae, and protein pattern analysis also showed that Streptomyces avidinii was closely related to this species. The practical application of ribosomal protein patterns in Streptomyces taxonomy was therefore demonstrated. 相似文献

The protein glutaminase (PG) secreted by the Gram-negative bacterium Chryseobacterium proteolyticum can deamidate glutaminyl residues in several substrate proteins, including insoluble wheat glutens. This enzyme therefore
has potential application in the food industry. We assessed the possibility to produce PG containing a pro-domain in Corynebacterium glutamicum which we have successfully used for production of several kinds of proteins at industrial-scale. When it was targeted to
the general protein secretion pathway (Sec) via its own signal sequence, the protein glutaminase was not secreted in this
strain. In contrast, we showed that pro-PG could be efficiently produced using the recently discovered twin-arginine translocation
(Tat) pathway when the typical Sec-dependent signal peptide was replaced by a Tat-dependent signal sequence from various bacteria.
The accumulation of pro-PG in C. glutamicum ATCC13869 reached 183 mg/l, and the pro-PG was converted to an active form as the native one by SAM-P45, a subtilisin-like
serine protease derived from Streptomyces albogriseolus. The successful secretion of PG via this approach confirms that the Tat pathway of C. glutamicum is an efficient alternative for the industrial-scale production of proteins that are not efficiently secreted by other systems. 相似文献

Three protease mutants--7 (tap-), 12 (tap-, ssp-), and 17 (multiple mutations)--of Streptomyces lividans were tested for their influence on protein secretion. Streptomyces lividans grown in xylan secretes 3 xylanases (A, B, and C). Xylanases A (XlnA) and B (XlnB) are secreted by the Sec pathway, whereas xylanase C (XlnC) is secreted by the Tat pathway. The production of XlnA and XlnC was affected in the mutants, suggesting that the mutations interfered with both Sec- and Tat-secretion systems. However, the processing rate for the Sec and Tat precursor was similar to the wild-type strain, indicating that the mutations had no direct effect on secretion. Streptomyces lividans naturally produced 2 forms of XlnB: XlnB1, which contains the catalytic and the xylan-binding domains, and XlnB2, which contains the catalytic domain only. There was no change from the wild-type strain in the ratio of XlnB1/XlnB2 produced by the mutants, indicating that these proteases are not involved in this process. Although XlnA1, partially truncated in its xylan-binding domain, was rapidly degraded to its catalytic domain (XlnA2) in the wild-type strain, the rate of conversion was reduced in the 3 mutants, indicating that the proteases participated to some extent in this proteolytic process. 相似文献

Sequence similarity between macrolide-resistance determinants and ATP-binding transport proteins. 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

The three macrolide-resistance-encoding genes, tlrC from Streptomyces fradiae, srmB from Streptomyces ambofaciens, and carA from Streptomyces thermotolerans, encode proteins that possess significant sequence similarity to ATP-dependent transport proteins. The N-terminal and C-terminal halves of these proteins are very similar to each other and contain highly conserved regions that resemble ATP-binding domains typically present within the superfamily of ATP-dependent transport proteins. These observations suggest that the mechanism by which these genes confer resistance to macrolides is due to export of the antibiotics, a process that is driven by energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. 相似文献
