Enhancing tylosin production by combinatorial overexpression of efflux, SAM biosynthesis, and regulatory genes in hyperproducing Streptomyces xinghaiensis strain.


ABSTRACT: Tylosin is a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic widely used in veterinary medicine to control infections caused by Gram-positive pathogens and mycoplasmas. To improve the fermentation titer of tylosin in the hyperproducing Streptomyces xinghaiensis strain TL01, we sequenced its whole genome and identified the biosynthetic gene cluster therein. Overexpression of the tylosin efflux gene tlrC, the cluster-situated S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) synthetase gene metKcs, the SAM biosynthetic genes adoKcs-metFcs, or the pathway-specific activator gene tylR enhanced tylosin production by 18%, 12%, 11%, and 11% in the respective engineered strains TLPH08-2, TLPH09, TLPH10, and TLPH12.
