چکیده
Transformation of Streptomyces galilaeus ATCC 31133 with the aklavinone 11-hydroxylase gene (dnrF) resulted in the production of many red pigments. The new metabolites were purified and their structures were determined as 11-hydroxylated aclacinomycin A, B and T by spectral analysis. This result indicated that the dnrF was stably expressed in the strain S. galilaeus ATCC 31133 to give rise to hybrid aclacinomycins. In addition, a new aclacinomycin analog named 11-hydroxyaclacinomycin X was isolated from the same culture. Its structure was elucidated as 2"'-amino-11-hydroxyaclacinomycin Y. It showed strong cytotoxicity against several human tumor cell lines, especially leukemia and melanoma cell lines.

A 3.4-kb BamHI fragment that is assumed to be a part of the aklavinone biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces galilaeus 3AR-33 and contains the genes required for the early stage of polyketide biosynthesis was sequenced. The nucleotide sequence of the region that hybridizes to the actIII probe reveals the presence of a gene, aknA, whose deduced protein product is very similar to the ActIII p...

In streptomycete anthracycline biosynthetic gene clusters, small open reading frames are located just upstream of minimal polyketide synthase genes. aknX is such a gene found in the aklavinone-aclacinomycin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces galilaeus. In order to identify its function, the aknX gene was expressed in Escherichia coli. The cell extract prepared from E. coli cells overexpr...

Sir: In the study of antitumor antibiotics new members of anthracycline group, aclacinomycins A and B, have been isolated from Streptomyces sp. No. MA144-Ml (ATCC 31133) which was classified as S. galilaeus. Aclacinomycins were produced by the shaking culture of MA144-MI strain at 28°C for 4 days in a medium containing 1 % glucose, 1 o potato starch, 1.5 5soybean meal ("Prorich", Ajinomoto Co.)...

Streptomyces galilaeus MA144-M1 produces antitumor anthracycline antibiotics aclacinomycins, A and B, and their analogues.1) Aclaeinomycins consist of an aglycone (aklavinone) and sugar moiety. Aclacinomycin analogues consist of combinations of different sugars and aglycone. The structural interrelationships of these compounds have been determined by chemical and enzymatic conversions coupled w...
