Gene recombination in Streptomyces coelicolor.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Prototrophic recombinant strains were obtained by plating on minimal medium spores from mixed cultures grown on limiting agar, of two strains each with a different double nutritional requirement. Clones showing new associations of properties were isolated on partially supplemented media. Some showed one ‘ mutant ’ character derived from one of the starting strains and ‘wild’ characters derived from the other; others showed two ‘mutant’ characters, each derived from one of the starting strains.

A recA null mutation may be generated in Streptomyces coelicolor.
The recombinase RecA plays a crucial role in homologous recombination and the SOS response in bacteria. Although recA mutants usually are defective in homologous recombination and grow poorly, they nevertheless can be isolated in almost all bacteria. Previously, considerable difficulties were experienced by several laboratories in generating recA null mutations in Streptomyces, and the only rec...
متن کاملDirect cloning and heterologous expression of the salinomycin biosynthetic gene cluster from Streptomyces albus DSM41398 in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2)
Linear plus linear homologous recombination-mediated recombineering (LLHR) is ideal for obtaining natural product biosynthetic gene clusters from pre-digested bacterial genomic DNA in one or two steps of recombineering. The natural product salinomycin has a potent and selective activity against cancer stem cells and is therefore a potential anti-cancer drug. Herein, we separately isolated three...
متن کاملPromotion of markerless deletion of the actinorhodin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces coelicolor.
The standard gene disruption and replacement to delete the actinorhodin biosynthetic gene cluster (Act) in Streptomyces coelicolor was inefficient, and the polymerase chain reaction-targeting of the cosmid could efficiently delete the Act, but still was a time-consuming procedure for markerless gene replacement. By using optimal Streptomyces codons, we synthesized a sceS gene encoding identical...
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 کاملRecombinational cloning of the antibiotic biosynthetic gene clusters in linear plasmid SCP1 of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).
The model organism Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) harbors a 356-kb linear plasmid, SCP1. We report here development of a recombinational cloning method for deleting large segment from one telomere of SCP1 followed by replacing with the telomere of pSLA2 and sequentially inserting with the overlapping cosmids in vivo. The procedure depends on homologous recombination coupled with cleavage at telo...
متن کاملMutants of Streptomyces roseosporus that express enhanced recombination within partially homologous genes.
Streptomyces roseosporus mutants that express enhanced recombination between partially homologous (homeologous) sequences were isolated by selection for recombination between the bacteriophage phi C31 derivative KC570 containing the Streptomyces coelicolor glucose kinase (glk) gene and the S. roseosporus chromosome. The frequencies of homeologous recombination in the ehr mutants were determined...
