Leu1p参与调节V-ATP酶的活性

RAVE(regulator of the H+-ATPase of the vacuolar and endosomal membrane)由Rav1p、Rav2p和Skp1p3个亚基组成,是V-ATP酶活性调节机制中一个关键的多亚基复合物调节因子;Leu1p能够与RAVE相互作用。通过融合PCR、同源重组分别构建了酿酒酵母BY4742的Rav1、Rav2、Leu1和Vma2缺陷型菌株。进一步研究重组菌株对p H及Ca Cl2的耐受能力发现:Leu1缺陷型菌株(3-异丙基苹果酸异构酶(Leu1p)缺失)的生长状况与Rav1、Rav2缺陷型菌株的生长状况基本一致,表明RAVE对V-ATP酶的活性调节极有可能需要通过与Leu1p结合才能实现。笔者所在实验室为进一步研究RAVE与Leu1p的相互关系及其对V-ATP酶的活性调节提供了重要依据。

Structure-activity relationship studies on UK-2A, a novel antifungal antibiotic from Streptomyces sp. 517-02. Part 5: Roles of the 9-membered dilactone-ring moiety in respiratory inhibition

Several open-chained analogues of UK-2A, a novel antifungal antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces sp. 517-02, were prepared for structure-activity studies. The in vitro antifungal activities of these compounds against Rhodotorula mucilaginosa IFO 0001 and the inhibition of uncoupler-stimulated respiration in bovine heart submitochondrial particles (SMP) were evaluated. Oxidative potentials were measured by cyclic voltammetry. An analogue prepared from dihexyl L-glutamate showed comparable inhibitory activity as UK-2A.     

Effect of liquid culture requirements on antifungal antibiotic production by Streptomyces rimosus MY02

Streptomyces rimosus MY02 was isolated from a soil sample which was collected from the northeast of China. The effect of medium components (i.e. carbon and nitrogen sources) and other culture requirements (i.e. initial pH and temperature) on production of antifungal antibiotics by S. rimosus MY02 was investigated in our work. The best conditions for the strain MY02 in 250-ml Erlenmeyer flask, for example, initial pH, temperature, medium capacity, agitation rate, seed age, inoculum size and growth period, were 6.0, 28 degrees C, 50 ml, 180 rpm, 4 days, 10% (v/v) and 120 h, respectively. Components and dosage of the medium, which effect antibiotic production, were determined by uniform design combined with regression analysis; meanwhile, a regression model was established. The components and dosage of the best medium were starch, 53.313 g; defatted peanut powder, 9.376 g; (NH(4))(2)SO(4), 6.244 g; and NaCl, 5.836 g; in 1l of distilled water. Residual values obtained between the observed values by experiments and predicted values by the model are very low, and this result showed that the experimental results were well in consistence with the calculation results via the model. The antifungal antibiotic production by S. rimosus MY02 was improved by optimization of the components and culture requirements. The diameter of inhibition zone of the culture supernatant from S. rimosus MY02 against Fusarium oxysporium f sp. cucumarinum was 33.19 mm.

Metabolic engineering of cultured tobacco cells

Construction of a gene expression system in tobacco cultured cells (BY2) was studied. A 925 bp promoter fragment of a heat-shock protein gene (HSP18.2) of Arabidopsis thaliana showed clear heat-shock response of expression of the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene in BY2 cells. Similar results were observed in a 500 mL flask and 3-L jar fermentor. Isolation of strong promoters in BY2 cells was tried. cDNA clones, in which the mRNA level is high in log-phase cells and the copy number in the genome is low, were isolated. These clones showed high homology with F1-ATPase (mitochondria type), elongation factor 1-alpha, and a gene with an unknown function of A. thaliana (clone 27), respectively. A 5'-flanking region of clone 27 showed 6.2 times the promoter activity of the CaMV35S promoter in BY2 cells. Three cDNA clones, which are expressed in the stationary growth phase of BY2 cells, were isolated by a differential screening. These clones showed high sequence homologies to alcohol dehydrogenase, pectin esterase, and extensin. Promoters of these genes will be useful in gene expression in high cell-density culture.     

Heterologous coexpression of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin and Bacillus megaterium glucanase in Streptomyces lydicus A02 enhanced its production of antifungal metabolites

Streptomyces lydicus A02 is a novel producer of commercially important polyene macrocyclic antibiotic natamycin and a potential biocontrol agent to several plant fungal diseases, including wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. spp. To improve the natamycin production and the antifungal activity of S. lydicus A02, we coexpressed gene vgb encoding Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) and bglC encoding Bacillus megaterium L103 glucanase, both under the control of the strong constitutive ermE* promoter, in S. lydicus A02. Our results showed that coexpressing VHb and glucanase improved cell growth, and the engineered strain produced 26.90% more biomass than the wild-type strain after 72 h fermentation in YSG medium. In addition, coexpressing genes encoding VHb and glucanase led to increased natamycin production, higher endogenous chitinase activity and exogenous glucanase activity, as well as enhanced antifungal activity in the engineered S. lydicus AVG02 and AGV02, regardless of the position of the two genes on the plasmids. Compared with model strains, few reports have successfully coexpressed VHb and other foreign proteins in industrial strains. Our results illustrated an effective approach for improving antifungal activity in an industrial strain by the rational engineering of combined favorable factors.     

Isolation and characterization of soil strains producing glutaryl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid acylase

A search was undertaken to screen microorganisms that produce an enzyme capable of deacylating glutaryl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid to 7-aminocephalosporanic acid in soil samples. The screening was carried out by preparing enrichment cultures containing glutaryl-7ACA and cephalosporin C as selective carbon sources. A non-β-lactam model compound, glutaryl-p-nitroanilide, was synthesized as a substrate suitable for the rapid screening of microorganisms isolated from the enrichment cultures. Two isolates exhibiting acylase activity, designated BY7.4 and BY8.1, were identified as strains ofPseudomonas species.Pseudomonas BY8.1 showed higher acylase activity toward Gl-7ACA thanPseudomonas BY7.4. Environmental conditions for the optimal acylase activity ofPseudomonas BY8.1 were shown to be pH 9 and 30°C.
