Regulators belonging to the DeoR family are widely distributed among the bacteria. Few studies have reported that DeoR family proteins regulate secondary metabolism of Streptomyces. This study explored the function of DeoR (SLINC_8027) in Streptomyces lincolnensis. Deletion of deoR in NRRL 2936 led to an increase in cell growth. The lincomycin production of the deoR deleted strain ΔdeoR was 3.4-fold higher than that of the wild strain. This trait can be recovered to a certain extent in the deoR complemented strain ΔdeoR::pdeoR. According to qRT-PCR analysis, DeoR inhibited the transcription of all detectable genes in the lincomycin biosynthesis cluster and repressed the expression of glnR, bldD, and SLCG_Lrp, which encode regulators outside the cluster. DeoR also inhibited the transcription of itself, as revealed by the XylE reporter. Furthermore, we demonstrated that DeoR bound directly to the promoter region of deoR, lmbA, lmbC-D, lmbJ-K, lmrA, lmrC, glnR, and SLCG_Lrp, by recognizing the 5'-CGATCR-3' motif. This study found that versatile regulatory factor DeoR negatively regulates lincomycin biosynthesis and cellular growth in S. lincolnensis, which expanded the regulatory network of lincomycin biosynthesis.

Streptomycetes are bacteria of significant biotechnological interest due to their production of bioactive specialised metabolites used in medicine and agriculture. In these bacteria, specialised metabolism and morphological differentiation are linked and typically repressed under high phosphate conditions. This study characterises a DeoR-like transcriptional regulator, SCO1897, in Streptomyces coelicolor, whose expression increases during sporulation.

We identified and characterized genomic regions of that are involved in the Leloir and the tagatose-6-phosphate pathways for D-galactose catabolism. The accumulation of mutations in genes coding the Leloir pathway and the absence of these genes in a significant proportion of the strains suggest that this pathway may no longer be necessary for and is heading toward extinction. In contrast, a genomic region containing genes coding for intermediates of the tagatose-6-phosphate pathway, a Gat family PTS transporter, and a DeoR/GlpR family regulator is present in the vast majority of strains.

The SorC family is a large group of bacterial transcription regulators involved in controlling carbohydrate catabolism and quorum sensing. SorC proteins consist of a conserved C-terminal effector-binding domain and an N-terminal DNA-binding domain, whose type divides the family into two subfamilies: SorC/DeoR and SorC/CggR. Proteins of the SorC/CggR subfamily are known to regulate the key node of glycolysis-triose phosphate interconversion.

Pyruvate (Pyr) is the end product of the glycolysis pathway. Pyr is also renewable and is further metabolized to produce formate, which is the precursor of H, via pyruvate formate lyase (PFL) under anaerobic conditions. The formate is excluded and re-imported via the formate channel and is then converted to H via the formate hydrogenlyase (FHL) complex.
