Effects of S-adenosylmethionine on production of secondary metabolites in Streptomycesdiastatochromogenes 1628.

ABSTRACT: Streptomyces are famous for their ability to synthesize a large number of bioactive compounds as secondary metabolites containing antibiotics, enzyme inhibitors, and other small molecules with potential physiological activity (Niu et al., 2016; Song et al., 2019; Yin et al., 2019). Secondary metabolites are produced by a multi-step reaction of a primary metabolite as a precursor (Liu et al., 2013; Li et al., 2021). Therefore, it is of great research significance to increase the overall synthesis level of antibiotics by increasing the amount of synthesis of precursors.

Project description:ppGpp is a ubiquitous small nucleotide messenger that mediates cellular self-protective responses under environmental stress. However, the mechanisms of ppGpp that control transcription and other metabolic processes depend on the species, and ppGpp regulates the same process via different mechanisms. The level of ppGpp is regulated by RelA/SpoT homolog (RSH) enzymes that synthesize and hydrolyze the alarmone. Here, we constructed a ppGpp0 strain and monitored the effects of ppGpp on the transcriptional level, physiology, and secondary metabiotic production in the antibiotic producer Streptomyces diastatochromogenes 1628. The results showed the cell division and growth of ppGpp0 increased by measurement of gene transcription and DCWs. The utilization of nitrogen was affected depending on the nitrogen type with a significantly higher DCW of the ppGpp0 mutant in the medium supplied with the yeast extract and a lower growth rate in the inorganic nitrogen ammonium salt. The ppGpp-mediated stringent response could not affect the usage of carbon resources. More importantly, ppGpp0 inhibited the expression of antibiotic clusters and the production of toyocamycin and tetramycin P. The antibiotic resistance was also significantly downregulated in the ppGpp0 mutant. In conclusion, this study showed detailed changes in ppGpp-mediated stringent responses on S. diastatochromogenes 1628 cell growth, nutrient utilization, morphological characteristics, antibiotic production, and resistance, which will provide insights into the role of ppGpp in Streptomyces. IMPORTANCE The ppGpp-mediated stringent response is widely distributed in Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Streptomyces, Staphylococcus aureus, etc. Stringent responses give strains the ability to resist environmental stresses, and survival from nutrition starvation, virulence, long-term persistence, biofilm formation, and gut colonization. ppGpp has many targets in cells and can reprogram DNA replication, transcription, ribosome biogenesis and function, and lipid metabolism. However, the mechanism of ppGpp to control transcription and other metabolic processes depends on the bacterial species and regulates the same process via a different mechanism. In Streptomyces, how ppGpp regulates the transcription remains to be elucidated. However, because ppGpp regulates many genes involved in primary and secondary metabolism, we compared the transcription and cell division, cell growth, morphological differentiation, antibiotic resistance, and secondary synthesis in the wild-type S. diastatochromogenes and ppGpp0 strains.
