Chromosomal deletion and rearrangement in Streptomyces glaucescens.
The Streptomyces glaucescens genome frequently undergoes gross genomic rearrangement events which result in the deletion of extremely large segments of chromosomal DNA. The structure and origin of the DNA forming the novel junctions arising from five of these deletion events are described. Only one junction proved to be the result of a relatively simple event; the remainder were more complex, w...
متن کاملAlbino mutants of Streptomyces glaucescens tyrosinase.
Site-directed mutagenesis was used to determine the functional role of several residues of Streptomyces glaucescens tyrosinase. Replacement of His-37, -53, -193 or -215 by glutamine yields albino phenotypes, as determined by expression on melanin-indicator plates. The purified mutant proteins display no detectable oxy-enzyme and increased Cu lability at the binuclear active site. The carbonyl d...
متن کاملBalanced Chromosomal Rearrangement in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortions: A Case Report
One of the major causes of spontaneous abortion before the fourth month of pregnancy is chromosomal abnormalities. We report an unusual case of a familial balanced chromosomal translocation in a consanguineous couple who experienced 4 spontaneous abortions. Chromosomal studies were performed on the basis of G-banding technique at high resolution and revealed 46, XX, t (16 6) (p12 q26) and 46, X...
متن کاملIsolation of tetracenomycin C-nonproducing Streptomyces glaucescens mutants.
We analyzed the properties of tetracenomycin C (TcmC)-nonproducing mutants of Streptomyces glaucescens to establish the nature of pathway intermediates and to provide some information about the genetics of antitumor anthracycline antibiotic production. Using cosynthesis properties and metabolite accumulation data, we classified a collection of 34 TcmC-nonproducing strains into seven different g...
متن کاملChromosomal circularization in Streptomyces griseus by nonhomologous recombination of deletion ends.
Streptomyces linear chromosomes frequently cause deletions at both ends spontaneously or by various mutagenic treatments, and concomitantly display dynamic structural changes such as circularization and arm replacement. We have cloned and sequenced the fusion junctions of circularized chromosomes in two deletion mutants of Streptomyces griseus. No homology and a 1-bp overlap were found between ...
