Project description:WblC, also known as WhiB7, is a widely conserved WhiB-like transcription factor in actinomycetes that activates transcription of many targets upon antibiotic challenge to bring about intrinsic resistance to a wide range of translation-targeting antibiotics. As we found that WblC controls many genes involved in translation and that WblC promotes translation rate upon antibiotic stress in the model actinomycetes Streptomyces coelicolor, we speculated that WblC might alter the protein composition of ribosome during antibiotic stress. To test this, we prepared 70S ribosome fraction from wild-type S. coelicolor cells untreated or treated with tetracycline and ΔwblC mutant treated with tetracycline, and then compared the protein compositions of each 70S samples by mass spectrometric quantification.
Project description:The Streptomyces coelicolor two genes operon SCO5784-SCO5785 encodes a two-component system which functions in a similar manner to that of the Bacillus subtilis DegS-DegU system. Propagation of the regulatory gene in high copy number results in the overproduction of several extracellular enzymes, among them the major extracellular protease, as well as in a higher level of synthesis of the antibiotic actinorhodin. This two-component system seems to control various processes characterised by the transition from primary to secondary metabolism in S. coelicolor, as determined by proteomic and transcriptomic analices. The presence of the regulatory gene in high copy number in S. coelicolor additionally seems to elicit a stringent response in the bacterial cell. Therefore, we propose renaming S. coelicolor genes SCO5784 and SCO5785 as degS and degU, respectively.
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:Based on the chromosomal locations of genes inferred from sequence analysis to be essential for the viability of Streptomyces coelicolor, Bentley et al. (Bentley et al., 2002) have suggested that a 4.9 Mb central region of the linear S. coelicolor chromosome encodes core functions expressed during vegetative growth of this species, while 1.5 Mb and 2.3 Mb chromosomal DNA segments lateral to this core encode auxiliary functions proposed to be required under other growth conditions. To examine this hypothesis and experimentally identify genes expressed during vegetative growth of S. coelicolor cultures, we used DNA microarrays to measure globally the abundance of S. coelicolor transcripts in cells growing in liquid medium. We found that, overall, genes corresponding to the 4.9 Mb core region of the S. coelicolor M145 chromosome were more highly expressed under non-limiting growth conditions than genes in the 1.5 Mb left and 2.3 Mb right chromosome arms, supporting the notion of the core versus auxiliary organization of genes on the chromosome. To examine how this chromosomal distribution of transcripts changes under other growth conditions, we also measured gene expression changes during stationary phase and several stress conditions. During stationary phase, the composition of S. coelicolor transcripts appears to shift from large quantities of growth-related transcripts encoded in the core region to those of less characterized genes, which may be essential for differentiation and other physiological responses, encoded throughout the chromosome. After temperature and osmotic upshifts, we found that S. coelicolor transiently induces a set of several hundred genes located throughout the chromosome, which may function in response mechanisms common to the two stress conditions.
