Chromatin-level regulation of biosynthetic gene clusters.
Loss-of-function Aspergillus nidulans CclA, a Bre2 ortholog involved in histone H3 lysine 4 methylation, activated the expression of cryptic secondary metabolite clusters in A. nidulans. One new cluster generated monodictyphenone, emodin and emodin derivatives, whereas a second encoded two anti-osteoporosis polyketides, F9775A and F9775B. Modification of the chromatin landscape in fungal second...
متن کاملHow to Harness Your Plant’s Improvement Power
Unless your organization is unique, it’s been under assault over the past fifteen years from intense competitive pressures. In response, you and others have ordered up a veritable alphabet soup of improvement initiatives: QCC, STS, TQC, TQM, SPC, JIT, DOE, ERP — does it ever end? Or you’ve turned to the “non-alphabetized” menu: benchmarking; reengineering; cycle-time reduction; supply chain man...
متن کاملDoBISCUIT: a database of secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters
This article introduces DoBISCUIT (Database of BIoSynthesis clusters CUrated and InTegrated, http://www.bio.nite.go.jp/pks/), a literature-based, manually curated database of gene clusters for secondary metabolite biosynthesis. Bacterial secondary metabolites often show pharmacologically important activities and can serve as lead compounds and/or candidates for drug development. Biosynthesis of...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of novobiocin and clorobiocin biosynthetic gene clusters.
A method was developed for the heterologous expression of biosynthetic gene clusters in different Streptomyces strains and for the modification of these clusters by single or multiple gene replacements or gene deletions with unprecedented speed and versatility. Lambda-Red-mediated homologous recombination was used for genetic modification of the gene clusters, and the attachment site and integr...
متن کاملluxR Homolog-Linked Biosynthetic Gene Clusters in Proteobacteria
Microbes are a major source of antibiotics, pharmaceuticals, and other bioactive compounds. The production of many specialized microbial metabolites is encoded in biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). A challenge associated with natural product discovery is that many BGCs are not expressed under laboratory growth conditions. Here we report a genome-mining approach to discover BGCs with luxR-type q...
