Abstract
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. In addition, we identified key enzymes that play a positive role in actinorhodin production. Of these, NADH dehydrogenase/complex-I, beta-ketoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase III, glycine cleavage system, and superoxide dismutase were identified as the most significant. By confirming these results with experiments, we have shown that GEMs can be a reliable starting point for in vitro (lab-based) studies of Streptomyces.
期刊介绍:
Research papers must make a significant and original contribution to
microbiology and be of interest to a broad readership. The results of any
experimental approach that meets these objectives are welcome, particularly
biochemical, molecular genetic, physiological, and/or physical investigations into
microbial cells and their interactions with their environments, including their eukaryotic hosts.
Mini-reviews in areas of special topical interest and papers on medical microbiology, ecology and systematics, including description of novel taxa, are also published.
Theoretical papers and those that report on the analysis or ''mining'' of data are
acceptable in principle if new information, interpretations, or hypotheses
emerge.
