Project description:scnA (GenBank: ADX66464.1) and scnB (GenBank: ADX66465.1) are ABC transporters located in the biosysnthesis gene cluster of natamycin in Streptomyces chattanoogensis. The two genes are presumbly involved in natamycin efflux. Our goal of this expriment was to investigate the effect of scnA and scnB inactivation on the gene expression in the whole genome. In ∆scnAB there were a total of 219 genes displaying at least a two-fold change (P<0.05), including 89 genes with lower and 130 genes with higher expressions

Project description:This study compared the genome of Streptomyces rimosus rimosus against that of Streptomyces coelicolor. It also compared 4 strains with changes in oxytetracycline production and derived from G7, the type strain, against G7. Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization
Project description:In LG01 there were a total of 861 genes displaying at least a two-fold change (P<0.05), including 470 genes with lower and 391 genes with higher expressions In this study, RNA isolated from LG01 or wild type Streptomyces chattanoogensis L10, was used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 8,117 protein-coding genes in S. chattanoogensis L10, leading to the successful construction of different expression profiles between whiGch deletion mutant and wild type S. chattanoogensis L10.
Project description:We identified genome-wide binding regions of NdgR in Streptomyces coelicolor using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq). We constructed 6×myc-tagged NdgR strain using homologous recombination with myc-tagging vector. Analysis of the sequencing data aligned to Streptomyces coelicolor genome database (NC_003888).
Project description:Soil is a rich environment for microbes, where they compete for space and resources. Streptomyces bacteria are well-known for their ability to synthesize natural products, particularly antibiotics, that are used in chemical defense against competing microbes. Here we show that Streptomyces are, in fact, predatory bacteria. Upon encountering yeast cells, Streptomyces initiate the production of numerous enzymes that digest the cell wall and cell membrane. In addition, the interaction triggers the production of natural products that destabilize the yeast cell membrane. Collectively these actions lead to the death of yeast cells and release of cellular building blocks that Streptomyces can use as nutrients. The work fundamentally shifts the paradigm of how Streptomyces are perceived within the soil microbiome ecosystem.
