摘要: In bacteria, arginine biosynthesis is tightly regulated by a universally conserved regulator, ArgR, which regulates the expression of arginine biosynthetic genes, as well as other important genes. Disruption of argR in Streptomyces clavuligerus NP1 resulted in complex phenotypic changes in growth and antibiotic production levels. To understand the metabolic changes underlying the phenotypes, comparative proteomic studies were carried out between NP1 and its argR disruption mutant (designated CZR). In CZR, enzymes involved in holomycin biosynthesis were overexpressed; this is consistent with its holomycin overproduction phenotype. The effects on clavulanic acid (CA) biosynthesis are more complex. Several proteins from the CA cluster were moderately overexpressed, whereas several proteins from the 5S clavam biosynthetic cluster and from the paralog cluster of CA and 5S clavam biosynthesis were severely downregulated. Obvious changes were also detected in primary metabolism, which are mainly reflected in the altered expression levels of proteins involved in acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) and cysteine biosynthesis. Since acetylCoA and cysteine are precursors for holomycin synthesis, overexpression of these proteins is consistent with the holomycin overproduction phenotype. The complex interplay between primary and secondary metabolism and between secondary metabolic pathways were revealed by these analyses, and the insights will guide further efforts to improve production levels of CA and holomycin in S. clavuligerus.
