Thorough investigation of Streptomyces peucetius ATCC 27952 genome revealed a sesquiterpene synthase, named spterp13, which encodes a putative protein of 732 amino acids with significant similarity to S. avermitilis MA-4680 (SAV2163, GeoA) and S. coelicolor A3(2) (SCO6073). The proteins encoded by SAV2163 and SCO6073 produce geosmin in the respective strains. However, the spterp13 gene seemed to be silent in S. peucetius. Deletion of the doxorubicin gene cluster from S. peucetius resulted in increased cell growth rate along with detectable production of geosmin. When we over expressed the spterp13 gene in S. peucetius DM07 under the control of an ermE* promoter, 2.4 +/- 0.4-fold enhanced production of geosmin was observed.
对天蓝色链霉菌ATCC 27952基因组的深入研究发现了一种倍半萜合酶,命名为spterp13,它编码一种推定的由732个氨基酸组成的蛋白质,与阿维链霉菌MA-4680(SAV2163,GeoA)和天蓝色链霉菌A3(2)(SCO6073)具有显著相似性。SAV2163和SCO6073编码的蛋白质在各自的菌株中产生土腥味素。然而,spterp13基因在天蓝色链霉菌中似乎是沉默的。从天蓝色链霉菌中删除阿霉素基因簇导致细胞生长速率增加,同时可检测到土腥味素的产生。当我们在ermE*启动子的控制下在天蓝色链霉菌DM07中过表达spterp13基因时,观察到土腥味素的产量提高了2.4±0.4倍。
