    Notes: Summary The effect of phenylacetic acid (PAA) and several analogs on the activity of isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) and acyl-CoA: 6-APA acyltransferase (AT) fromPenicillium chrysogenum Wis 54-1255 has been tested. Whereas the substitution on the ring of a hydrogen atom by hydroxy-, methyl- or methoxy- groups did not cause any effect, the presence of halogens (Cl or Br) at positions 3 and/or 4 of PAA strongly inhibited these two enzymes. The replacement of hydrogen atoms by fluorine in certain positions also caused inhibition, but to a lesser extent.

    Notes: Summary Sequence analysis of the actVA region of the actinorhodin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces coelicolor revealed a succession of six open reading frames (ORFs), all running in the same direction and extending over 5.32 kb. The protein product of actVA-ORF1 strongly resembles that of another gene, elsewhere in the act cluster (actII-ORF2), which codes for a trans-membrane protein previously implicated in actinorhodin export from the mycelium. This suggests that the two gene products may co-operate in actinorhodin export, perhaps being sufficient for self-protection of the organism against suicide. At least four of the other five ORFs are implicated in the control of the C-6 and C-8 ring-hydroxylation reactions, lacking in actVA mutants, that occur at middle to late stages in the actinorhodin biosynthetic pathway. This conclusion was reached by genetic mapping of actVA mutants to actVA-ORF3 and-ORF5 (and perhaps -ORF4), and by the finding of strong resemblances between the protein products of actVA-ORF2 and -ORF6 and the products of genes of the oxytetracycline or tetracenomycin gene clusters that have been implicated in ring-hydroxylation reactions in the biosynthesis of these other aromatic polyketide antibiotics.
