SCO4008 from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) is a member of the TetR family. However, its precise function is not yet clear. In this study, the crystal structure of SCO4008 was determined at a resolution of 2.3Å, and its DNA-binding properties were analyzed. Crystal structure analysis showed that SCO4008 forms an Ω-shaped homodimer in which the monomer is composed of an N-terminal DNA-binding domain containing a helix-turn-helix and a C-terminal dimerization and regulatory domain possessing a ligand-binding cavity. The genomic systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment and electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed that four SCO4008 dimers bind to the two operator regions located between sco4008 and sco4007, a secondary transporter belonging to the major facilitator superfamily. Ligand screening analysis showed that SCO4008 recognizes a wide range of structurally dissimilar cationic and hydrophobic compounds. These results suggested that SCO4008 is a transcriptional repressor of sco4007 responsible for the multidrug resistance system in S. coelicolor A3(2).

Background: Universal stress proteins (USPs) are prevalent in various bacteria to cope with different adverse stresses, while their possible effects on secondary metabolisms of hosts are unclear. Tiancimycins (TNMs) are ten-membered endiynes possessing excellent potential for development of anticancer antibody-drug conjugates. During our efforts to improve TNMs titer, a high-producing strain Streptomyces sp.

The genus Streptomyces is a group of gram-positive bacteria that exhibit a distinctive growth pattern characterised by elongated, branched hyphae. Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), which produces at least five different antibiotics, is a model organism that is widely used in genetic studies. There are very few studies in Streptomyces on the ATP-dependent Lon protease, which has very important functions in every organism and is particularly responsible for protein homeostasis.

Coelimycin (CPK) producer Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) is a well-established model for the genetic studies of bacteria from the genus Streptomyces, renowned for their ability to produce a plethora of antibiotics and other secondary metabolites. Expression regulation of natural product biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) is highly complex, involving not only regulatory proteins, like transcription factors, but also the products of the biosynthetic pathway that may act as ligands for some regulators and modulate their activity. Here, we present the evidence that intracellular CPK precursor(s) (preCPK) is involved in a negative feedback loop repressing the CPK BGC.

The bacterial stringent response is a global regulatory process in which polyphosphate kinase (Ppk) and lon protease are important players. Previous studies have shown that overexpression of the lon gene and deletion of the ppk gene significantly increased actinorhodin production in Streptomyces coelicolor (SCO). In this study, a recombinant SCOΔppk-lon cell, expressing the extra lon gene in Δppk cells, was simulated using a modified in silico (computational) model, ecSco-GEM, and the negative effect of Ppk on actinorhodin production was confirmed.

Long seen as non-valorisable waste, agricultural co-products are increasingly used in biorefinery processes. Co-culture appears as new trend for to improve the degradation of lignocellulose and improve the production of bioproducts. The goal of the study was to setup inter-domain co-cultures with high capabilities of lignocellulose degradation using a pluridisciplinary approach combining bioinformatics, enzymology, transcriptomics.
