Increased penicillin production in Penicillium chrysogenum production strains via balanced overexpression of isopenicillin N acyltransferase.
Intense classical strain improvement has yielded industrial Penicillium chrysogenum strains that produce high titers of penicillin. These strains contain multiple copies of the penicillin biosynthesis cluster encoding the three key enzymes: δ-(l-α-aminoadipyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine synthetase (ACVS), isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS), and isopenicillin N acyltransferase (IAT). The phenylacetic aci...
متن کاملPenicillin acyltransferase in Penicillium chrysogenum.
Isotopic exchange of (35)S between penicillins and 6-amino-penicillanic acid (6-APA) was observed in cell-free extracts of Penicillium chrysogenum. Sulfhydryl-containing compounds were required for activity. Dithiothreitol, dithioerythritol, mercaptoethanol, and glutathione served as activators. The acyltransferase was purified threefold by adsorption on calcium phosphate gel at pH 6 and elutio...
متن کاملPenicillin production by high-yielding strains of Penicillium chrysogenum.
The development and study of strains of Penicillium chrysogenum that give high yields of penicillin has been a major project at the University of Wisconsin during the past 12 years. Many thousands of cultures have been screened for their penicillin-producing ability in the Botany Department of the University. The methods used for the production and screening of mutants, the genealogy of the out...
متن کاملProduction of functionally active Penicillium chrysogenum isopenicillin N synthase in the yeast Hansenula polymorpha
BACKGROUND beta-Lactams like penicillin and cephalosporin are among the oldest known antibiotics used against bacterial infections. Industrially, penicillin is produced by the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum. Our goal is to introduce the entire penicillin biosynthesis pathway into the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. Yeast species have the advantage of being versatile, easy...
متن کاملPenicillin production by wild isolates of Penicillium chrysogenum in Pakistan
The present study was aimed at exploring the native wild isolates of Penicillium chrysogenum series in terms of their penicillin production potential. Apart from the standard medium, the efforts were made to utilize suitable agro-industrial wastes for the maximum yield of penicillin. Two series of P. chrysogenum were isolated from local sources and named as P. chrysogenum series UAF R1 and P. c...
