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.
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: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 Streptomyces genus represents a prolific and significant source for secondary metabolite discovery. Here, we report a de novo assembly and draft genome sequence for the type strain Streptomyces armeniacus ATCC 15676.
