摘要
从链霉菌Streptomyces sahachiroi ATCC 33158基因组中克隆到1个聚酮合酶(polyketide synthase,PKS)基因orf18。生物信息学及进化树分析表明它可能属于rppA类Ⅲ型PKS基因。通过RT-PCR证实了该基因在野生型S.sahachiroi中是可以进行转录表达的。HPLC和LC-MS分析的结果表明orf18在S.lividans中异源表达时可产生1,3,6,8-四羟基萘(THN),并且发现该基因也可以在革兰氏阴性菌Pseudomonas stutzeri中异源表达并产生明显的棕红色色素。证明orf18编码的蛋白属于RppA类Ⅲ型PKS,可催化THN的合成,而产物THN在革兰氏阴性菌P.stutzeri中可进一步氧化及聚合形成棕红色色素。
A putative type III polyketide synthase (PKS) gene orfl8 found in genome sequence of Streptomyces sahachiroi ATCC 33158 was cloned and analyzed functionally. Bioinformatics and phyloge- netic analyses revealed that or f18 was highly homologous to rppA-like type PKS gene. RT-PCR re- sult demonstrated that off18 can be transcribed into mRNA in wild-type S. sahachiroi. HPLC and LC- MS analyses verified that Orfl8 catalyzes the 1,3,6,8-tetrahydroxynaphthalene (THN) biosynthesis by heterologously expressing in S. lividans. Moreover, brownish red pigments could be produced by heterol- ogous expression of or f18 in Gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas stutzeri. Experimental results dem- onstrated that Orfl8 belongs to the RppA-like type III PKS family and catalyzes THN formation,which could be further oxidized and then polymerized to produce red pigments.
