The antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase has been studied in order to define mechanisms for the influence of oxygen on penicillin production. Manganese-containing SOD activity was purified from penicillin-producing cultures of the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum and reverse genetics was used to identify full-length cDNA and genomic clones. Sequence analysis revealed a 630-bp ORF containing three exons and two introns with fungal consensus splice-site junctions. The deduced amino-acid sequence (210 amino acids; 23.13 kDa) includes conserved residues required for enzymatic activity and metal binding, and shares significant similarity with Mn- and Fe-containing superoxide dismutases. The sod gene is present as a single copy in the genome of different P. chrysogenum strains and its expression level is not correlated with penicillin-G productivity.

D010406 Penicillins A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics.
