plJ903, a bifunctional derivative of the 31.4 kb low-copy number, conjugative Streptomyces plasmid SCP2, was mutagenized in Streptomyces lividans using Tn4560. Mutant plasmids differing in their transfer frequencies, chromosome mobilization abilities, pock formation, and complementation properties were isolated. The mutations defined five transfer-related genes, traA, traB, traC, traD and spd, clustered in a region of 9 kb. The deduced sequences of the putative TraA and TraB proteins showed no overall similarity to known protein sequences, but the phenotype of traA mutant plasmids and sequence motifs in the putative TraA protein suggested that it might be a DNA helicase. 相似文献

IS 117 is a 2527 bp transposable element from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) with a circular transposition intermediate. Disruption of 0RF1 of IS 117, presumed to encode a transposase, abolished transposition. Deletion or mutation of 0RF2 and 0RF3, which overlap each other on opposite strands of IS 117, caused a c. 20-fold reduction in integration frequency of the circular form of IS 117 into the Streptomyces lividans chromosome or into the preferred chromosomal target site cloned on a plasmid in transformation experiments. In contrast, inactivation of ORF2/3 did not significantly influence transposition of IS 117 derivatives from an already integrated state in the chromosome to the preferred target site cloned on a plasmid. 0RF2 mutants apparently excised readily from the S. lividans chromosome, whereas excision of integrated wild-type IS 117 derivatives to yield the unoccupied site was not detected; presumably, therefore, the circular transposition intermediate normally arises replicatively. Attempts to promote integration of a plasmid carrying the attachment site of IS 117 by providing the ORF1 product in trans were unsuccessful. Most transformation of S. lividans with circular IS 117 derivatives yielded tandem chromosomal insertions, which arose by co-transformation rather than dimerization of a monomeric insert. Typically, two to three transforming elements gave a transformed strain, suggesting a local concentration of transposase as a limit on integration. 相似文献
