Streptomyces sp. AM-7161 is a producer of an aromatic polyketide medermycin with strong antibacterial and antitumor activity. It has been inefficient to perform genetic manipulations in this strain, which heavily hinders the genetic analysis of some interesting problems concerning tailoring modifications in medermycin biosynthesis. Here, condition optimizations of sporulation and mycelium growth of this strain as well as protoplast preparation and regeneration were conducted systematically. Based on these results, protoplast transformation system was established, and two types of foreign plasmids (integrative and auto-replicating) were efficiently introduced into this strain. Additionally, a conjugation system to mediate plasmid transfer between Escherichia coli and Streptomyces sp. AM-7161 was also optimized and established. These results provide the practical procedures to perform more convenient genetic analysis of medermycin biosynthesis in this strain.

Biochemical Genetics,Biology, Molecular,Genetics, Biochemical,Genetics, Molecular,Molecular Genetics,Biochemical Genetic,Genetic, Biochemical,Genetic, Molecular,Molecular Genetic
D009285 Naphthoquinones Naphthalene rings which contain two ketone moieties in any position. They can be substituted in any position except at the ketone groups. Naphthalenediones,Naphthazarins,Naphthoquinone
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D011523 Protoplasts The protoplasm and plasma membrane of plant, fungal, bacterial or archaeon cells without the CELL WALL. Protoplast
D003227 Conjugation, Genetic A parasexual process in BACTERIA; ALGAE; FUNGI; and ciliate EUKARYOTA for achieving exchange of chromosome material during fusion of two cells. In bacteria, this is a uni-directional transfer of genetic material; in protozoa it is a bi-directional exchange. In algae and fungi, it is a form of sexual reproduction, with the union of male and female gametes. Bacterial Conjugation,Conjugation, Bacterial,Genetic Conjugation
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
