Cloning and expression in streptomyces lividans of antibiotic resistance genes derived from Escherichia coli.
Hybrid plasmids that replicate in both Escherichia coli and Streptomyces lividans were constructed in vitro by joining the E. coli-derived plasmid pACYC184 or pACYC177, at their BamHI or PstI restriction site, respectively, to S. lividans plasmid pSLP111. After introduction of the composite replicons into S. lividans by transformation, chloramphenicol (Cm) resistance encoded by pACYC184 and kan...
متن کاملIdentification of a cyclase gene dictating the C-9 stereochemistry of anthracyclines from Streptomyces nogalater.
Nogalamycin is an anthracycline antibiotic produced by Streptomyces nogalater. Its aglycone has a unique stereochemistry (7S, 9S, 10R) compared to that of most other anthracyclines (7S, 9R, 10R). The gene snoaL, encoding a nogalonic acid methyl ester cyclase for nogalamycin, was used to generate nogalamycinone, demonstrating that the single cyclase dictates the C-9 stereochemistry of anthracycl...
متن کاملUnstable genetic determinant of A-factor biosynthesis in streptomycin-producing organisms: cloning and characterization.
We cloned a DNA fragment directing synthesis of A-factor from the total cellular DNA of streptomycin-producing Streptomyces bikiniensis on the plasmid vector pIJ385 . Introduction of the recombinant plasmid ( pAFB1 ) into A-factor-deficient S. bikiniensis and Streptomyces griseus mutants led to A-factor production in the host cells, as a result of which streptomycin production, streptomycin res...
متن کاملIdentification by Genome Mining of a Type I Polyketide Gene Cluster from Streptomyces argillaceus Involved in the Biosynthesis of Pyridine and Piperidine Alkaloids Argimycins P
Genome mining of the mithramycin producer Streptomyces argillaceus ATCC 12956 revealed 31 gene clusters for the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, and allowed to predict the encoded products for 11 of these clusters. Cluster 18 (renamed cluster arp) corresponded to a type I polyketide gene cluster related to the previously described coelimycin P1 and streptazone gene clusters. The arp clust...
متن کاملCloning of the kanamycin resistance gene from a kanamycin-producing Streptomyces species.
A kanamycin-producing strain, Streptomyces kanamyceticus ISP5500, is resistant to kanamycin. A kanamycin resistance determinant was cloned from S. kanamyceticus into Streptomyces lividans 1326, using the plasmid vector pIJ702. The resulting plasmid, pMCP5, could also transform Streptomyces lavendulae S985 and Streptomyces parvulus 2283 to kanamycin resistance. Transformants carrying pMCP5 were ...
