Three genes encoding AfsK, AfsR, AfsS homologues in were studied, respectively, to investigate regulatory role of AfsKRS system for pristinamycin biosynthesis. Transcription change and gene inactivation analysis indicated that these genes had active transcription and positive regulation for the improvement of pristinamycin production in . The analysis of AfsKRS-defective mutagenesis indicated that there might be a positive correlation between the product of and pristinamycin I biosynthesis, and a negative correlation to pristinamycin II biosynthesis. However, both and might have negative correlation to pristinamycin I production and positive correlation to pristinamycin II production. The effects on pristinamycin production of AfsKRS disruptants by protein kinase inhibitor K252a indicated that AfsR, both not AfsK and AfsS, was the inhibition target of K252a in , and AfsR should serve as a pleiotropic regulator to have differential regulation on biosynthesis of pristinamycin I and II components. Based on above study, it might be deduced that different signal transduction patterns via AfsK, AfsR, AfsS of AfsKRS system should be involved in respective regulation for biosynthesis of pristinamycin I and II in . In conclusion, the investigation could give some valuable clues for exploring furtherly regulatory function of AfsKRS system in .

The aim of this study was to develop and fully validate a sensitive and rapid ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous quantification of pristinamycin ⅠA (PⅠA) and pristinamycin ⅡA (PⅡA) in plasma of beagle dogs after oral administration of pristinamycin tablets. PⅠA, PⅡA and quinupristin (internal standard, IS) were separated on an Agilent Eclipse Plus C column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 3.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the AfsKRS signaling system in Streptomyces pristinaespiralis, which regulates the production of two components of pristinamycin: PI and PII.
  • Researchers investigated the role of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) in this signaling pathway, using mutants that lack functional AfsK, AfsR, and AfsS.
  • Results showed that external SAM significantly boosted PI production but had little effect on PII, with varying levels of increase observed in the different mutants, highlighting the complexity of the AfsKRS regulatory system.

Pristinamycin biosynthesis using and date sirup (DS) as substrates was optimized before scale-up. DS was filter sterilized as heat sterilization primes Maillard reactions having negative effects on antibiotic production. Multilinear regression modeling (MLR) predicted optimum medium composition, specifying components with positive and negative effects on production.
