Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Antibiotic production and morphological differentiation in Streptomyces is stimulated by a high concentration of copper ion. Here, we revealed that the stimulation is based on the energy homeostatic mechanisms including the following systems: (1) negative regulation of ATP synthase operon by a transcriptional regulator Rex, and (2) positive regulation of succinate dehydrogenase operon by a specific LysR-type transcriptional regulator. Thus controlled intracellular energetic state may serve as a signal for the onset of development.
