Nitrate respiration in the actinomycete Streptomyces coelicolor.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Streptomyces coelicolor is an obligate aerobic, filamentous soil-dwelling bacterium. Remarkably, the genome of S. coelicolor has three copies of the narGHJI operon that encodes respiratory nitrate reductase. This review summarizes our current views on the requirements for multiple nitrate reductases in S. coelicolor.

Antifungal activity of terrestrial Streptomyces rochei strain HF391 against clinical azole -resistant Aspergillus fumigatus
Background and Purpose: Actinomycetes have been discovered as source of antifungal compounds that are currently in clinical use. Invasive aspergillosis (IA) due to Aspergillus fumigatus has been identified as individual drug-resistant Aspergillus spp. to be an emerging pathogen opportunities a global scale. This paper described the antifungal activity of one terrestrial actinomycete against the...
متن کاملEngineering Streptomyces coelicolor for heterologous expression of secondary metabolite gene clusters
We have constructed derivatives of Streptomyces coelicolor M145 as hosts for the heterologous expression of secondary metabolite gene clusters. To remove potentially competitive sinks of carbon and nitrogen, and to provide a host devoid of antibiotic activity, we deleted four endogenous secondary metabolite gene clusters from S. coelicolor M145--those for actinorhodin, prodiginine, CPK and CDA ...
متن کاملIdentification of ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase as a regulatory step in the glycolytic pathway of the actinomycete Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).
The ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase (ATP-PFK) of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was purified to homogeneity (1,600-fold) and characterized (110 kDa, with a single type of subunit of 40 kDa); it is allosterically inhibited by phosphoenolpyruvate. Cloning of the pfk gene of S. coelicolor A3(2) and analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence (343 amino acids; 36,667 Da) revealed high similarities...
متن کاملA Streptomyces coelicolor host for the heterologous expression of Type III polyketide synthase genes
BACKGROUND Recent advances in genome sequencing, combined with bioinformatic analysis, has led to the identification of numerous novel natural product gene clusters, particularly in actinomycetes of terrestrial and marine origin. Many of these gene clusters encode uncharacterised Type III polyketide synthases. To facilitate the study of these genes and their potentially novel products, we set o...
متن کاملDesferrioxamine E produced by Streptomyces griseus stimulates growth and development of Streptomyces tanashiensis.
The authors previously reported that interspecific stimulatory events between Streptomyces species for antibiotic production and/or morphological differentiation mediated by putative diffusible metabolites take place at a high frequency. This paper reports the isolation and characterization of a substance produced by Streptomyces griseus that stimulates the growth and development of Streptomyce...
