Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The genome analysis of a thioviridamide (TVA)-producing organism showed a gene encoding the TVA precursor peptide (tvaA). Heterologous production of TVA in Streptomyces lividans identified the thioviridamide biosynthetic gene cluster containing 12 genes (tvaA - tvaL). Prethioviridamide was extracted from the TVA producer with methanol as a true biosynthetic product, which was converted to TVA by acetone treatment. In the rph gene cluster of the roseophilin producer, four genes including rphG showed homology to the prodigiosin cyclization gene redG. A redG disruptant of S. coelicolor expressing rphG produced two cyclized prodigiosins, metacycloprodigiosin and a new analogue, propyl-meta-cyclooctylprodiginine, suggesting that the rphG is a prodigiosin cyclization gene with novel regioselectivity.
