Formation of Streptomyces Protoplasts during Cultivation in Liquid Media with Lytic Enzyme

چکیده
Many streptomycetes strains are hardly or not at all transformable via protoplasts, or there is a problem with the regeneration of protoplasts. We found that protoplasts are formed directly in cultivation media under submerged conditions in the presence of lytic enzyme. Actinophage μ1/6 endolysin and lysozyme were used in this study. Streptomyces strains were cultivated in several media with glycine and lytic enzyme for 24 and 48h. The highest amounts of protoplasts (about 3 x 10 cfu/ml of cultivation medium) together with the highest regeneration (95%) and transformation frequency (about 2 x 10 – 10 cfu/μg DNA) were obtained reproducibly in YEME medium with high sucrose content. S. aureofaciens B96, as hardly transformable strain because of difficulties with protoplast preparation and their further regeneration, was used in this study. The same procedure was applied to S. lividans 66 TK24 and S. coelicolor A3(2), streptomycetes model strains, to confirm the general use of this method. Moreover, such cultivation process was appropriate for additional quick isolation of either chromosomal as well as plasmid DNA that could be further used in recombinant DNA techniques.

Protoplasts of the wild type Streptomyces clavuligerus NRRL 3585 (ATCC 27064) were formed from spores cultures obtained in the lag, exponential and stationary growth phases by using 0.5% glycine in the culture medium. The protoplasts were obtained by treatment of the cells with lysozyme (EC-3.2.1.17) 40,000 U (1mg/ mL), in an osmotic solution for 90 min at 28oC. The frequency of regenerated pro...

AIMS Different cultural conditions for forming and reverting protoplasts were systematically studied to establish a rapid and efficient protocol for Sclerotium rolfsii ATCC 201126. METHODS AND RESULTS Osmotic stabilizer, lytic enzymes and mycelial age were the main factors influencing protoplast yields. An optimized protocol involving 1-h hydrolysis of 45-h-old mycelium with Trichoderma harzi...
