Genome Sequence of Saccharopolyspora erythraea D, a Hyperproducer of Erythromycin
نویسندگان
چکیده
Saccharopolyspora erythraea is a Gram-positive bacterium that can produce antibiotics. However, this microorganism must often be genetically improved for higher production before it can be used in an industrial setting. Here, we report the whole-genome sequence of the industrial hyperproducer strong mutator Saccharopolyspora erythraea strain D.

Enhancing the effect of soybean oil refinery byproducts on erythromycin production by Saccharopolyspora erythraea
Erythromycin production is clearly enhanced by the addition of vegetable oils. However,whether this positive effect is brought about by the triglyceride or non-triglyceride fraction, isnot clear. The non-triglyceride portions of the oils accumulate in the waste during the refiningprocess leaving mainly triglycerides in the refined oil. In this research, sub-fractions of soybeanoil, including le...
متن کاملProduction of 6-deoxy-13-cyclopropyl-erythromycin B by Saccharopolyspora erythraea NRRL 18643.
Cyclopropane carboxylic acid was fed to Saccharopolyspora erythraea NRRL 18643 (6-deoxyerythromycin producer), resulting in the production of 6-deoxy-13-cyclopropyl-erythromycin B. These studies provide further evidence that deoxyerythronolide B synthase has a relaxed specificity for the starter unit.
متن کاملAnalysis of an 8.1-kb DNA fragment contiguous with the erythromycin gene cluster of Saccharopolyspora erythraea in the eryCI-flanking region.
An 8.1-kb region of the Saccharopolyspora erythraea genome, significant for its contiguity to the known genes of the erythromycin biosynthetic gene cluster, was mutationally analyzed and its DNA sequence was determined. The region lies immediately adjacent to eryCI. The newly characterized region is notable for a large, 3.0-kb segment, predicted not to be translated, followed by four probable g...
متن کاملMutation and cloning of eryG, the structural gene for erythromycin O-methyltransferase from Saccharopolyspora erythraea, and expression of eryG in Escherichia coli.
A mutant strain derived by chemical mutagenesis of Saccharopolyspora erythraea (formerly known as Streptomyces erythreus) was isolated that accumulated erythromycin C and, to a lesser extent, its precursor, erythromycin D, with little or no production of erythromycin A or erythromycin B (the 3"-O-methylation products of erythromycin C and D, respectively). This mutant lacked detectable erythrom...
متن کاملCloning, characterization, and high-level expression in Escherichia coli of the Saccharopolyspora erythraea gene encoding an acyl carrier protein potentially involved in fatty acid biosynthesis.
The erythromycin A-producing polyketide synthase from the gram-positive bacterium Saccharopolyspora erythraea (formerly Streptomyces erythraeus) has evident structural similarity to fatty acid synthases, particularly to the multifunctional fatty acid synthases found in eukaryotic cells. Fatty acid synthesis in S. erythraea has previously been proposed to involve a discrete acyl carrier protein ...
