Alpha-ketoglutarate protects Streptomyces coelicolor from visible light-induced phototoxicity
It has been known that some Streptomyces species, including the model strain Streptomyces coelicolor, are vulnerable to visible light. Much evidence demonstrated that the phototoxicity induced by visible light is a consequence of the formation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are potentially harmful to cells. In this study, we found that α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) has a protect...
متن کاملErgothioneine protects Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) from oxidative stresses.
Thiol compounds with low-molecular weight, such as glutathione, mycothiol (MSH), bacillithiol, and ergothioneine (ERG), are known to protect microorganisms from oxidative stresses. Mycobacteria and actinobacteria utilize both MSH and ERG. The biological functions of MSH in mycobacteria have been extensively studied by genetic and biochemical studies, which have suggested it has critical roles f...
متن کاملRepression in Streptomyces coelicolor
A glucose kinase (glkA) mutant of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) M145 was selected by the ability to grow in the presence of the nonmetabolizable glucose analog 2-deoxyglucose. In this glk4 mutant, carbon catabolite repression of glycerol kinase and agarase was relieved on several carbon sources tested, even though most of these carbon sources are not metabolized via glucose kinase. This suggest...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of RNA polymerase alpha subunit gene from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).
The rpoA gene, encoding the alpha subunit of RNA polymerase, was cloned from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2). It is preceded by rpsK and followed by rplQ, encoding ribosomal proteins S11 and L17, respectively, similar to the gene order in Bacillus subtilis. The rpoA gene specifies a protein of 339 amino acids with deduced molecular mass of 36,510 Da, exhibiting 64.3 and 70.7% similarity over its ...
