Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Streptomyces coelicolor growing in soil amended with chitin, a transcription factor DasR is involved in the regulation of expression of chitin metabolism-related genes and antibiotic production genes. In this study, in order to clarify the metabolic regulation cascade around the DasR, we tried to find factors which regulate dasR expression. As a result, we found that DasR itself binds strongly to dasR promoter, also that a transcription factor whose deletion leads to over production of chitinase and loss of catabolite repression of chitinase production controls expression of dasR.
