Stimulation of leucomycin production by magnesium phosphate and its relevance to nitrogen catabolite regulation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Addition of magnesium phosphate [Mg3(PO4)2 x 8H2O] to a complex medium or to an ammonium ion-containing, chemically defined medium stimulated leucomycin production by Streptomyces kitasatoensis. Ammonium ions in high concentrations inhibited leucomycin production, but their limitation by magnesium phosphate led to the high production of the antibiotic.

Regulation of Nitrogen Metabolism by GATA Zinc Finger Transcription Factors in Yarrowia lipolytica
Fungi accumulate lipids in a manner dependent on the quantity and quality of the nitrogen source on which they are growing. In the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, growth on a complex source of nitrogen enables rapid growth and limited accumulation of neutral lipids, while growth on a simple nitrogen source promotes lipid accumulation in large lipid droplets. Here we examined the roles of ...
متن کاملAn alternative bacterial expression system using Bacillus pumilus SG2 chitinase promoter
Background: Chitin is an abundant natural polysaccharide found in fungi, algae, and exoskeleton of insects. Several bacterial species are capable of utilizing chitin as their carbon source. These bacteria produce chitinases for degradation of chitin into N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. So far, regulation of the chitinase encoding genes has been studied in different bacterial species. Among Bacillus spe...
متن کاملGlucose uptake pathway-specific regulation of synthesis of neotrehalosadiamine, a novel autoinducer produced in Bacillus subtilis.
Neotrehalosadiamine (3,3'-diamino-3,3'-dideoxy-alpha,beta-trehalose; NTD) is an amino-sugar antibiotic produced by several Bacillus species that functions as an autoinducer by activating its own biosynthetic operon, ntdABC. We previously reported that the introduction of a certain rpoB mutation (rpoB5) into Bacillus subtilis enables the cells to overproduce NTD. B. subtilis mini-Tn10 transposan...

Trehalose is the non-reducing alpha-alpha-1, 1-linked glucose disaccharide. The biosynthesisprecursor of trehalose, trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P), is essential for plant development, growth,carbon utilization and alters photosynthetic capacity but its mode of action is not understood. In thecurrent research, 6 days old seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia ecotype) were grown inliquid cultu...
