arsRBOCT arsenic resistance system encoded by linear plasmid pHZ227 in Streptomyces sp. strain FR-008.

چکیده
In the arsenic resistance gene cluster from the large linear plasmid pHZ227, two novel genes, arsO (for a putative flavin-binding monooxygenase) and arsT (for a putative thioredoxin reductase), were coactivated and cotranscribed with arsR1-arsB and arsC, respectively. Deletion of the ars gene cluster on pHZ227 in Streptomyces sp. strain FR-008 resulted in sensitivity to arsenic, and heterologous expression of the ars gene cluster in the arsenic-sensitive Streptomyces strains conferred resistance on the new hosts. The pHZ227 ArsB protein showed homology to the yeast arsenite transporter Acr3p. The pHZ227 ArsC appears to be a bacterial thioredoxin-dependent ArsC-type arsenate reductase with four conserved cysteine thioredoxin-requiring motifs.

Development of Streptomyces sp. FR-008 as an emerging chassis☆
Microbial-derived natural products are important in both the pharmaceutical industry and academic research. As the metabolic potential of original producer especially Streptomyces is often limited by slow growth rate, complicated cultivation profile, and unfeasible genetic manipulation, so exploring a Streptomyces as a super industrial chassis is valuable and urgent. Streptomyces sp. FR-008 is ...
متن کاملTailoring the P450 monooxygenase gene for FR-008/candicidin biosynthesis.
Tailoring steps are often important for the activity of mature antibiotics. Here, we report that novel decarboxylated FR-008/candicidin derivatives were obtained from the P450 monooxygenase gene fscP mutant of Streptomyces sp. strain FR-008. The toxicity of decarboxylated FR-008/candicidin derivatives has been shown to be greatly reduced compared to that of wild-type FR-008/candicidin.

Arsenic resistance in bacteria is basically due to a detoxification system encoded by the ars operon. It has been reported in various grams negative as well as gram positive genera. The E. coli chromosomal ars operon and E. coli plasmid R773 borne ars operons were the first ones to be discovered. The ars operon Staphylococcus aureus plasmid pI 258 which shows only 30% structural homology with t...

The spectinomycin (sp) resistance determinant from Streptomyces flavopersicus was cloned into Streptomyces lividans using the plasmid vector pIJ699. A plasmid, pDGL15, with a 3.65 kb insert from S. flavopersicus conferring resistance to Sp was isolated. DNA sequence analysis of the 3651 1 bp DNA insert revealed four open reading frames (ORFs). The amino acid sequence deduced from one ORF (SpcN)...

Bacillus sp. CDB3 isolated from an arsenic contaminated cattle dip site possesses an uncommon arsenic resistance (ars) operon bearing eight genes in the order of arsRYCDATorf7orf8. We investigated the functions of arsA, arsT, orf7 and orf8 in arsenic resistance using a plasmid-based gene knockout approach in the ars gene deficient Escherichia coli strain AW3110. The CDB3 arsA gene was shown to ...
