    Notes: Transcription of redD, the activator gene required for production of the red-pigmented antibiotic undecylprodigiosin by Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), showed a dramatic increase during the transition from exponential to stationary phase. The increase in redD expression was followed by transcription of redX, a biosynthetic structural gene, and the appearance of the antibiotic in the mycelium, and coincided with the intracellular appearance of ppGpp. However, ppGpp production elicited either by nutritional shift-down of, or addition of serine hydroxamate to, exponentially growing cultures had no stimulatory effect on redD transcription. The presence of redD on a multicopy plasmid resulted in elevated levels of the redD transcript and production of redX and undecylprodigiosin during exponential growth; the normal growth-phase-dependent production of undecylprodigiosin appeared to be mediated entirely through the redD promoter, which shows limited similarity to the consensus sequence for the major class of eubacterial promoters.

    The stringent response in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) (1991)

    Notes: The stringent response was elicited in the antibiotic producer Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) either by amino acid depletion (nutritional shiftdown) or by the addition of serine hydroxamate; both led to increased levels of ppGpp and to a reduction in transcription from the four promoters of the rrnD rRNA gene set. Analysis of untreated batch cultures revealed elevated ppGpp levels at the end of exponential growth, preceding the onset of antibiotic production. The effect of provoking the stringent response on antibiotic production in exponentially growing cultures was assessed by S1 nuclease mapping of actIII, an early gene of the actinorhodin biosynthetic cluster. Expression of act III occurred after nutritional shiftdown, but not after treatment with serine hydroxamate. Although the need for ppGpp in triggering antibiotic production remains equivocal, ppGpp synthesis atone does not appear to be sufficient to initiate secondary metabolism in S. coelicolor A3(2).
