Transposon Tn4556 of Streptomyces fradiae: nucleotide sequence of the ends and the target sites.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A transposon, Tn4556, has recently been isolated from Streptomyces fradiae (S.-T. Chung, J. Bacteriol. 169:4436-4441, 1987). The ends of Tn4556 were found to contain inverted repeats of 38 base pairs with 70% sequence identity with the ends of Tn3. Insertion of Tn4556 into a Streptomyces plasmid resulted in a 5-base-pair duplication of the target site.

STREPTOMYCES FRADIAE, A POTENT PRODUCER OF CHOLESTEROL OXIDASE
Thirteen species of Streptomycetes, Arthrobacters and Mycobacterium were studied for the determination of a potential cholesterol oxidase producer. Only Streptomyces fradiae and Streptomyces rishiriences were found to be capable of producing this enzyme. Streptomyces fradiae was selected for the production of cholesterol oxidase and cultured in different media to find optimum media and con...
متن کاملConstruction and application of plasmid- and transposon-based promoter-probe vectors for Streptomyces spp. that employ a Vibrio harveyi luciferase reporter cassette.
Several versatile promoter-probe vectors have been constructed for Streptomyces strains which utilize the production of blue-green light as a measure of transcription activity. Three plasmid vectors (two high and one low copy number) and two transposons are described. The multicopy plasmids pRS1106 and pRS1108 contain a transcription terminator and multiple-cloning polylinker upstream of promot...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Streptomyces fradiae olg1-1, a Strain Resistant to Nitrone-Oligomycin
We report a draft genome sequence of Streptomyces fradiae olg1-1, a mutant strain derived from the model object S. fradiae ATCC 19609, which is resistant to nitrone-oligomycin and has a mutation in the DNA-binding domain of a transcriptional regulator PadR.
متن کاملUnusual transcriptional and translational features of the aminoglycoside phosphotransferase gene (aph) from Streptomyces fradiae.
The aminoglycoside phosphotransferase gene (aph) from the neomycin producer Streptomyces fradiae encodes an enzyme (APH) that phosphorylates, and thereby inactivates, the antibiotic neomycin. Two promoters were identified upstream of and oriented toward the aph coding sequence. One promoter (aphp1) initiated transcription at the A of the ATG translational initiation codon, or one to two bases u...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Streptomyces fradiae ATCC 19609, a Strain Highly Sensitive to Antibiotics
We report here a sequence of the genome of the Streptomyces fradiae ATCC 19609 strain, initially isolated from the soil, which produces tylosin. S. fradiae is highly sensitive to different classes of antibiotics, compared to the sensitivities of other bacteria. We have identified 9 groups of genes directly or indirectly involved in the resistome formation.
