Project description:To investigate the function of organic nitrogen on clavulanic acid biosynthesis in Streptomyces clavuligerus, we established F613-1 strain cells cultured in MH fermentation medium and ML fermentation medium. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 2 different medium at three time points.
Project description:This study compared the genome of Streptomyces rimosus rimosus against that of Streptomyces coelicolor. It also compared 4 strains with changes in oxytetracycline production and derived from G7, the type strain, against G7. Keywords: Comparative genomic hybridization
Project description:The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of extracellular culture medium of Streptomyces AGN23, a strain inducing disease resistance in plants, on the Arabidopsis transcriptome.
Project description:We identified genome-wide binding regions of NdgR in Streptomyces coelicolor using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq). We constructed 6×myc-tagged NdgR strain using homologous recombination with myc-tagging vector. Analysis of the sequencing data aligned to Streptomyces coelicolor genome database (NC_003888).
Project description:Chitin is the second most abundant biopolymer present in soils and is utilized by antibiotic-producing Streptomyces species. Its monomer, N-acetylglucosamine (NAG), regulates the developmental program of the model organism Streptomyces coelicolor. NAG blocks differentiation when growing on rich medium whilst it promotes development on poor culture media. We report here the negative effect of NAG on tacrolimus (FK506) production in Streptomyces tsukubaensis NRRL 18488 growing on a defined rich medium. Using microarrays technology, we found that GlcNAc represses the transcription of fkbN, encoding the main transcriptional activator of the tacrolimus biosynthetic cluster, and of ppt1, encoding a phosphopantheteinyltransferase involved in tacrolimus biosynthesis. On the contrary, NAG stimulated transcription of genes related to amino acid and nucleotide biosynthesis, DNA replication, RNA translation, glycolysis, pyruvate metabolism, and key gene members of the PHO regulon. The results obtained support those previously reported for S. coelicolor, but some important differences were observed
Project description:The terminal compartments of Streptomyces are less prone to transcription than the rest of the chromosome. Indeed, the expression of the highly variable regions enriched in those compartments is generally conditional and often requires an empirical approach to characterize the inducing conditions. For instance, in the context of identifying adequate antibiotic production conditions, an OSMAC (“One Strain Many Compounds”) approach is frequently implemented, based on strain cultivation in different environmental conditions (composition of the medium, growth time, temperature, co-cultures, etc.). Likewise, to find the expression conditions of a complete prophage of Streptomyces ambofaciens ATCC 23877 (named 'Samy' phage/prophage), we conducted a similar approach by analyzing the transcriptomes in five solid media (HT, SAF, ONA, MMM, MMM+NAG).

Duplicate samples, each replicate may be found in the corresponding supplementary file for the Sample
Project description:This project aims to discover novel bioactive compounds from Streptomyces isolated from the rhizosphere from wild medicinal plants from Hamedan province, Iran. Proteomics is used to assist in discovery and characterization of the compounds. Streptomyces isolates are grown on ISP-4 medium for three days, proteins were extracted and analysed by shotgun proteomics.
