Project description:Streptomyces has the largest repertoire of natural product biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), yet developing a universal engineering strategy for each Streptomyces species is challenging. Given that some Streptomyces species have larger BGC repertoires than others, we hypothesized that a set of genes co-evolved with BGCs to support biosynthetic proficiency must exist in those strains, and that their identification may provide universal strategies to improve the productivity of other strains. We show here that genes co-evolved with natural product BGCs in Streptomyces can be identified by phylogenomics analysis. Among the 597 genes that co-evolved with polyketide BGCs, 11 genes in the “coenzyme” category have been examined, including a gene cluster encoding for the co-factor pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ). When the pqq gene cluster was engineered into 11 Streptomyces strains, it enhanced production of 16,385 metabolites, including 36 known natural products with up to 40-fold improvement and several activated silent gene clusters. This study provides a new engineering strategy for improving polyketide production and discovering new biosynthetic gene clusters.

Project description:ForJ, ForF and ForZ are cluster situated regulators of the formicamycin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces forimcae. This ChIP Sequencing experiment was conducted to identify where in the genome these regulators bind in order to identify which transcripts they might regulate.

Project description:The aim of this experiment was to map the transcription start sites (TSSs) in the bottromycin biosynthetic gene cluster from Streptomyces scabies, qualitatively assess the expression levels of this cluster within the bacterium's transcriptome and evaluate whether deletion of a potential regulatory gene in the cluster, btmL affects gene cluster expression.

Project description:Chitin is the second most abundant biopolymer present in soils and is utilized by antibiotic-producing Streptomyces species. Its monomer, N-acetylglucosamine (NAG), regulates the developmental program of the model organism Streptomyces coelicolor. NAG blocks differentiation when growing on rich medium whilst it promotes development on poor culture media. We report here the negative effect of NAG on tacrolimus (FK506) production in Streptomyces tsukubaensis NRRL 18488 growing on a defined rich medium. Using microarrays technology, we found that GlcNAc represses the transcription of fkbN, encoding the main transcriptional activator of the tacrolimus biosynthetic cluster, and of ppt1, encoding a phosphopantheteinyltransferase involved in tacrolimus biosynthesis. On the contrary, NAG stimulated transcription of genes related to amino acid and nucleotide biosynthesis, DNA replication, RNA translation, glycolysis, pyruvate metabolism, and key gene members of the PHO regulon. The results obtained support those previously reported for S. coelicolor, but some important differences were observed

Project description:Actinomycete genomes contain a plethora of orphan gene clusters encoding unknown secondary metabolites, and representing a huge unexploited pool of chemical diversity. The explosive increase in genome sequencing and the massive advance of bioinformatic tools have revolutionized the rationale for natural product discovery from actinomycetes. In this context, we applied a genome mining approach to discover a group of unique catecholate-hydroxamate siderophores termed as qinichelins from Streptomyces sp. MBT76. Quantitative proteomics statistically correlated a gene cluster of interest (qch) to its unknown chemotype (qinichelin), after which structural elucidation of isolated qinichelin was assisted by bioinformatics analysis and verified by MS2 and NMR experiments. Strikingly, intertwined functional crosstalk among four separately located gene clusters was implicated in the biosynthesis of qinichelins.

Project description:On the example of the biosynthetically exhausted landomycin A cluster we demonstrate unbalancing of gene transcription as an efficient method for the generation of new compounds. Decoupled from the native regulators LanI and LanK, all landomycin A structural genes were set under the control of a single synthetic promoter and expressed in a heterologous host Streptomyces albus J1074. Previously being both temporarily and quantitatively regulated, these genes were transcribed as a single polycistronic mRNA leading to the production of four novel and two known compounds. No glycosylated landomycins were detected though the entire biosynthetic cluster was transcribed, showing the crucial role of the balanced gene expression for the production of landomycin A. Two new compounds, fridamycin F and G, isolated in this study were shown to originate from the interplay between the expressed biosynthetic pathway and metabolic network of the heterologous host. Structure activity studies of the isolated compounds as well as results of transcriptome sequencing are discussed in this article. Comparison of gene expression of the H2-26 cosmid (encoding landomycin A biosynthetic genes) with H2-26-act, where an additional constitutive promoter cassette was integrated to drive biosynthetic genes transcription.

Project description:To identify unique gene expression in higher antibiotics producing Streptomyces coelicolor strain, non-producer M1146 and the derivative strain M1146+ACT (M1146 with actinorhodin biosynthetic genes cluster) was choosen for comparative transcriptome analysis. The genes with different gene expression might be key genes important for antibiotics production.
