A doxorubicin-nonproducing mutant, Nu23 was selected from the mutagenesis of Streptomyces peucetius ATCC27952. Chemical and molecular biological analysis suggested that the mutant was blocked at the step between polyketide synthase and aklaviketon reductase in the biosynthesis of doxorubicin. Furthermore, the bioconversion experiment with the mutant revealed that 13-dihydrodaunorubicin is likely to be a biosynthetic intermediate.

We selected two mutants namely strain D5 and Nu23 by mutagenesis of anthracycline producing Streptomyces: the former is an $\varepsilon$-rhodomycinone overproducing mutant selected from Streptomyces sp. C5, a baumycin producer and the latter, a blocked mutant of early pathway for doxorubicin biosynthesis obtained from Streptomyces peucetius ATCC 27952, a doxorubicin producer. The mutant strain Nu23 does not produce anthracycline metabolites but retains the most of enzyme activities converting aklavinone to doxorubicin and the mutant strain D5 produced $\varepsilon$-rhodomycinone at a level of 150 $\mu$g/ml. These strains were grown separately in NDYE medium and each was mixed at day 3 by equal volume of culture broth but the quantity of doxorubicin produced was far below an estimation based on the level of $\varepsilon$-rhodomycinone normaly produced by the strain D5. On the other hand doxorubicin was reached at maximum level after 4 days in the mixed culture condition which was composed of culture broth of strain D5 grown for 6 day and that of strain Nu23 grown for 3 day. It was turned out that the growth of mutant strain D5 was inhibited by the accumulation of daunorubicin and doxorubicin in mixed culture broth, which cause the limitation of $\varepsilon$-rhodomycinone.

To establish an effective and reliable technique of mutation by protoplast regeneration in doxorubicin overproducing industrial strain, it is essential to optimize the conditions for protoplast regeneration. $CaCO_3$ as buffer, the negative effect of glucose was still evident without significant changes in pH, ruling out acidity as responsible for the suppression of anthracycline production and suggesting a direct effect of glucose on antibiotic biosynthesis. Production of doxorubicin was improved in doxorubicin overproducing industrial strain (BR-Dox) when protoplast regenerated. BR-Dox4 and BR-Dox6 of BR-Dox derivatives improved doxorubicin production by 25.2 % and 12.2 %, respectively.

독소루비신 생합성 유전자의 발현을 촉진시키는 유전자인 dnrI와 다나루비신으로부터 독소루비신으로의 생전환에 관여하는 유전자인 doxA를 ermE 프로모터가 포함된 pSE34에 도입하였을 때 각각 5.5배, 2.5배의 독소루비신 생산성 증가가 이루어졌다. 독소루비신 생합성 유전자군의 발현패턴 분석을 위한 DNA microarray system을 구축하였고, 고생산 균주의 독소루비신 생합성 유전자 발현 패턴을 DNA microarray를 통해 확인하였다. 독소루비신 생합성 유전자군의 세포성장에 따른 발현패턴을 분석한 결과, 독소루비신 생산성 증가에 따라 생합성 유전자의 발현도 증가함을 확인할 수 있었고, pSE34를 통해 도입해준 donA, dnrI 유전자의 경우 전체 생합성 유전자의 평균보다 높은 수준의 발현량을 보여줌으로써, ermE 프로모터에 의해 발현이 극대화되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 독소루비신 내성 유전자의 경우 다른 독소루비신 생합성 유전자들에 비해 발현정도가 크게 증가했고, DnrI 의해 조절을 받는 다른 유전자들의 발현 수준과 비교하였을 때 TDP-daunosamine을 생합성의 첫 번째 단계에 관여하는 dnmL 유전자는 그 발현양의 증가가 크지 않았다. 따라서 DNA microarray 시스템 분석 결과, 독소루비신 생산성 극대화를 위해서는 dnrI, doxA, drrA, drrB, drrC, dnmL 등의 유전자들의 안정적 발현이 매우 중요하고도 핵심적인 인자임이 확인되었다.

Dephosphocoenzyme A (CoaE) catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the cofactor coenzyme A. In this study, we report the identification and application of CoaE from Stretomyces peucetius ATCC27952. After expression of coaE, the protein was found to have a molecular mass of 28.6 kDa. Purification of the His-tagged fused CoaE protein was done by immobilized metal-affinity chromatography, and then in vitro enzymatic coupling assay was performed. The increasing NADH consumption with time shed light on the phosphorylating activity of CoaE. Furthermore, the overexpression of coaA and coaE independently under the $ermE^*$ promoter in the doxorubicin -producing wild type strain, resulted in 1.4- and 1.5-fold enhancements in doxorubicin production, respectively. In addition, the overexpression of both genes together showed a 2.1-fold increase in doxorubicin production. These results established a positive role for secondary metabolite production from Streptomyces peucetius.

A lot of polyketide antibiotics have been isolated from natural sources like microorganism, fungi and plant. The polyketide natural products have biologically and medically important activities, including antibacterial, anticancer, antiparasitic, and immunosuppressant properties. The diversified activities of polyketides are originated from their structural variety of which have been took advantage by several research groups for development of new drugs. (omitted)

Streptomyces peucetius가 생산하는 anthracycline 계열의 doxorubicin은 치료목적으로 사용되는 중요한 항암제 중 하나이다. Doxorubicin은 rhodomycin D에서부터 몇 단계의 생합성 과정을 더 거쳐 생산되는데, 생물학적 활성을 갖기 위해서는 deoxy-sugar의 전이가 반드시 일어나야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이종균주인 Streptomyces venezuelae에 11개의 유전자를 형질 전환하여 TDP-L-daunosamine를 생산하고 이것을 ${\varepsilon}$-rhodomycinone에 전이하여 rhodomycin D를 생산하는 연구를 수행하였다. S. peucetius 유래의 7개 유전자 dnmU, T, J, V, Z, Q, S.를 당 합성 및 전이를 위해 plasmid 형태로 전이하였으며, S. venezuelae의 desIII, IV와 doxorubicin 내성 유전자인 drrA, B는 chromosomal DNA에 삽입하였다. Aglycone 기질인 ${\varepsilon}$-rhodomycinone을 확보하기 위하여 6L의 고체 배지에 S. peucetius를 배양하여 유기용매로 추출하고 preparative HPLC로 분리 정제하였다. 결과적으로 이종균주인 S. venezuelae에서 ${\varepsilon}$-rhodomycinone에 당 전이가 일어난 생산물을 확인함으로써 deoxy-sugar의 생합성 및 전이에 필요한 최소한의 유전적 정보를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 유사서열 단백질 모델링을 통하여, 최초로 당 전이 반응에 필수적인 도움효소 DnrQ의 구조를 예측하였다.

The late-stage doxorubicin biosynthesis pathway acting enzyme (DoxA) from Streptomyces peucetius CYP129A2 exhibited substrate promiscuity towards the stilbene group of compounds such as resveratrol. DoxA along with two accessory enzymes ferrdoxin reductase and ferredoxin from spinach hydroxylated resveratrol at the 3'-position in vitro to produce piceatannol. The product was identified by HPLC-PDA and high-resolution HR-qTOF-ESI/MS analyses in positive mode. The ESI/MS fragments resembled the hydroxylated product of resveratrol.

Lyn, a tyrosine kinase that is activated by double-stranded DNA-damaging agents, is involved in various signaling pathways, such as proliferation, apoptosis, and DNA repair. Ribosomal protein S3 (RpS3) is involved in protein biosynthesis as a component of the ribosome complex and possesses endonuclease activity to repair damaged DNA. Herein, we demonstrated that rpS3 and Lyn interact with each other, and the phosphorylation of rpS3 by Lyn, causing ribosome heterogeneity, upregulates the translation of p-glycoprotein, which is a gene product of multidrug resistance gene 1. In addition, we found that two different regions of the rpS3 protein are associated with the SH1 and SH3 domains of Lyn. An in vitro immunocomplex kinase assay indicated that the rpS3 protein acts as a substrate for Lyn, which phosphorylates the Y167 residue of rpS3. Furthermore, by adding various kinase inhibitors, we confirmed that the phosphorylation status of rpS3 was regulated by both Lyn and doxorubicin, and the phosphorylation of rpS3 by Lyn increased drug resistance in cells by upregulating p-glycoprotein translation.
