Abstract

DNA sequence analysis of doxA from Streptomyces peucetius subsp. caesius ATCC 27952 revealed a $95\%$ amino acid identity with that of Streptomyces strain C5. DoxA from S. peucetius subsp. caesius ATCC 27952 encodes a peptide with both conserved heme-binding and dioxygen-binding motifs. Expression of this gene in S. lividans 1326 resulted in bioconversion of daunorubicin to doxorubicin.
