Leucine improves the component of isovalerylspiramycins for the production of bitespiramycin

Abstract: Bitespiramycin, a group of 4''-O-acylated spiramycins with 4''-O-isovalerylspiramycins as the major components, is produced by recombinant spiramycin-producing strain Streptomyces spiramyceticus harboring a 4''-O-acyltransferase gene from a carbomycin-producing strain S. mycarofaciens 1748. The effects of leucine feeding on the bitespiramycin fermentation, especially the synthesis of isovalerylspiramycin components, were investigated. The experiment was initially performed in flask culture under the condition … Show more

“…For instance, valine catabolism produced the units of n-butyrate, propionate and 2-methylmalonate for the biosynthesis of spiramycin [20,21], tylosin [22] and monensin A [23]. Added leucine could affect the components of isovalerylspiramycins so that the production of bitespiramycin was improved [24]. Short-chain fatty acids derived from added amino acids were secreted into a broth culture in the growth phase, followed by microbial utilisation for the synthesis of secondary metabolites in the production phase [18].…”

“…The 4″-isovaleryl group of BT originates from the l -Leucine ( l -Leu) metabolic pathway. So, branched-chain amino acids, particularly l -Leu, can significantly improve the yield of BT [5]. An effective way to develop high-producing BT strain that produces more l -Leu is to eliminate the feedback regulation caused by l -Leu itself as end product.…”

“…The titer of carrimycin was improved through the ribosome engineering, but it was far from the requirement in the scale-up fermentation. Many efforts have been made to improve the production of carrimycin in Streptomyces spiramyceticus WSJ−195 in recent years, including traditional random mutagenesis [9,10], medium optimization [11], exogenous feeding strategies [12,13], fermentation process control [14], and genetic engineering [15]. Among these approaches, traditional mutagenesis is a powerful and easily operated method for strain improvement in Streptomyces, especially for microbes with less understanding of genomic information and metabolic mechanisms.…”
