The peptide backbones of NRPs are synthesized by nonribosomal peptide synthetases （NRPSs） that minimally consist of one adenylation （A） domain, one peptidyl carrier protein （PCP） and one condensation （C） domain. In this study, we carded out a PCR screening and identified 21 ＂positive＂ strains from 100 actinomycete strains with the degenerate primers designed from the conserved sequences of A domains of NRPSs. One of the 21 ＂positive＂ strains, Streptomyces sp. HMU0027, was selected for large-scale fermentation （9 L） based on HPLC analysis, and subsequent isolation and structural elucidation afforded seven NRPS-synthesized thiazostatin siderophore analogues （1-7）. Compound 1 was a new compound containing an unusual linkage between a phenolate siderophore and a sugar moiety. These results laid the foundation for further biosynthetic research of these thiazostatin analogues and highlighted the power of genome mining technologies based on biosynthetic knowledge in NRP discovery.展开更多
微生物许多非核糖体肽类次生代谢产物主要是由非核糖体肽合成酶(NRPS)催化合成。参考Gontang发布的非核糖体肽合成酶(NRPS)通用引物设计扩增NRPS腺苷酰化结构域基因序列的特异引物,从海洋链霉菌L1的基因组DNA中扩增获得一个715 bp的NRP...微生物许多非核糖体肽类次生代谢产物主要是由非核糖体肽合成酶(NRPS)催化合成。参考Gontang发布的非核糖体肽合成酶(NRPS)通用引物设计扩增NRPS腺苷酰化结构域基因序列的特异引物,从海洋链霉菌L1的基因组DNA中扩增获得一个715 bp的NRPS基因序列。测序结果及比对分析表明该片段属于NRPS腺苷酰化结构域部分序列。对其拟翻译的氨基酸序列组成成分、理化性质进行分析,显示其包含AFD class I超基因家族核心结合区,为NRPS腺苷酰化结构域(A结构域)所在区域。对氨基酸序列的二级结构预测和三级结构模拟,发现与数据库中肠菌素合酶F组分的结构相似。为后续研究A结构域的特异性及完整NRPS基因簇克隆提供了参考。展开更多
