    Notes: Morphological changes leading to aerial mycelium formation and sporulation in the mycelial bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor rely on establishing distinct patterns of gene expression in separate regions of the colony. σH was identified previously as one of three paralogous sigma factors associated with stress responses in S. coelicolor. Here, we show that sigH and the upstream gene prsH (encoding a putative antisigma factor of σH) form an operon transcribed from two developmentally regulated promoters, sigHp1 and sigHp2. While sigHp1 activity is confined to the early phase of growth, transcription of sigHp2 is dramatically induced at the time of aerial hyphae formation. Localization of sigHp2 activity using a transcriptional fusion to the green fluorescent protein reporter gene (sigHp2–egfp) showed that sigHp2 transcription is spatially restricted to sporulating aerial hyphae in wild-type S. coelicolor. However, analysis of mutants unable to form aerial hyphae (bld mutants) showed that sigHp2 transcription and σH protein levels are dramatically upregulated in a bldD mutant, and that the sigHp2–egfp fusion was expressed ectopically in the substrate mycelium in the bldD background. Finally, a protein possessing sigHp2 promoter-binding activity was purified to homogeneity from crude mycelial extracts of S. coelicolor and shown to be BldD. The BldD binding site in the sigHp2 promoter was defined by DNase I footprinting. These data show that expression of σH is subject to temporal and spatial regulation during colony development, that this tissue-specific regulation is mediated directly by the developmental transcription factor BldD and suggest that stress and developmental programmes may be intimately connected in Streptomyces morphogenesis.

    Notes: A promoter which controls expression of the pristinamycin multidrug resistance gene (ptr) in Streptomyces pristinaspiralis could be induced by physiological stresses in both Streptomyces spp. and Escherichia coli. In S. pristinaspiralis, the ptr promoter (Pptr) was induced by pristinamycin I (PI) or pristinamycin II (PII). Streptomyces lividans was adopted as a convenient heterologous host for studies of Pptr regulation since it has no known pristinamycin biosynthetic genes. Two key regulatory features were documented in these studies: many (19 of 70) antibiotics and chemicals with no common targets or structural features induced the Pptr; induction with PI was most efficient during a transition phase when antibiotic biosynthetic genes are switched on. In Streptomyces coelicolor, Pptr activity was similarly inducible by PI and not dependent on sigma factors HrdA, HrdC, or HrdD. In E. coli, Pptr cloned in the bifunctional promoter probe vector plJ2839 was functional and activated upon entry into stationary phase in the absence of exogenous inducer. Finally, gel-retardation studies demonstrated a Pptr-binding protein in S. lividans (where its activity was PI-inducible), S. coelicolor and S. pristinaespiralis. The fact that this activity was not detected in E. coli suggested the existence of another regulatory system perhaps also present in Streptomyces.

    Notes: In the differentiating eubacterium Streptomyces coelicolor, nutritional imbalances activate a developmental programme which involves the heat-shock stress regulon. In liquid batch cultures, the growth curve could be separated into four components: rapid growth 1 (RG1), transition (T), rapid growth 2 (RG2) and stationary (S). Patterns of gene expression in cultures subjected to heat shock in various phases were recorded on two-dimensional gels and analysed using advanced statistical methods. The responses of all heat-shock proteins (HSPs) were highly dependent upon the growth phase, thus demonstrating that the four phases of growth were physiologically distinct. For many HSPs, the levels of thermal induction attained were closely related to growth stage-determined levels of synthesis before heat shock, thus supporting the idea that developmental and thermal induction of this stress regulon have common control elements. Cluster analysis identified five groups of HSPs displaying similar kinetics of heat and developmentally induced synthesis, probably reflecting the influence of major regulatory systems. Methods introduced here to analyse the response of groups of genes to multiple simultaneous stimuli should find broad applications to studies of other prokaryotic and eukaryotic regulons.

    Notes: In wild-type Streptomyces coelicolor MT1110 cultures, cyclic adenosine 3′,5′ monophosphate (cAMP) was synthesized throughout the developmental programme with peaks of accumulation both during germination and later when aerial mycelium and actinorhodin were being produced. Construction and characterization of an adenylate cyclase disruption mutant (BZ1) demonstrated that cAMP facilitated these developmental processes. Although pulse-labelling experiments showed that a similar germination process was initiated in BZ1 and MT1110, germ-tube emergence was severely delayed in BZ1 and never occurred in more than 85% of the spores. Studies of growth and development on solid glucose minimal medium (SMMS, buffered or unbuffered) showed that MT1110 and BZ1 produced acid during the first rapid growth phase, which generated substrate mycelium. Thereafter, on unbuffered SMMS, only MT1110 resumed growth and produced aerial mycelium by switching to an alternative metabolism that neutralized its medium, probably by reincorporating and metabolizing extracellular acids. BZ1 was not able to neutralize its medium or produce aerial mycelium on unbuffered SMMS; these defects were suppressed by high concentrations (〉1 mM) of cAMP during early growth or on buffered medium. Other developmental mutants (bldA, bldB, bldC, bldD, bldG) also irreversibly acidified this medium. However, these bald mutants were not suppressed by exogenous cAMP or neutralizing buffer. BZ1 also differentiated when it was cultured in close proximity to MT1110, a property observed in cross-feeding experiments between bald mutants and commonly thought to reflect diffusion of a discrete positively acting signalling molecule. In this case, MT1110 generated a more neutral pH environment that allowed BZ1 to reinitiate growth and form aerial mycelium. The fact that actinorhodin synthesis could be induced by concentrations of cAMP (〈 20 μM) found in the medium of MT1110 cultures, suggested that it may serve as a diffusible signalling molecule to co-ordinate antibiotic biosynthesis.

    Unusual regulatory mechanism for a Streptomyces multidrug resistance gene, ptr, involving three homologous protein-binding sites overlapping the promoter region (1995)

    Notes: A promoter controlling expression of the pristinamycin multidrug resistance gene (ptr), originally isolated from Streptomyces pristinaespiralis, is inducible by many toxic compounds in various Streptomyces species. Studies of ptr promoter control were carried out in the heterologous host, Streptomyces lividans. In S. lividans, a regulatory protein or a protein complex (Pip), identified by its ability to bind to the ptr promoter in gel-retardation experiments, was induced by pristinamycin I (PI). In situ copper-phenanthroline foot-printing analysis identified three (A, B, and C) similar Pip-binding sites having the sequence GTACA(C/G)CGTA(C/T). These sites overlapped with functionally important regions of the promoter: the ‘A’ site overlapped with the −35 hexamer, ‘B’ overlapped with the −10 hexamer and ‘C’ was located between the transcription start site and the Shine—Dalgarno sequence. A GT—AG dinucleotide mutation was introduced at positions 8–9 of the consensus sequence to generate seven variant promoters: three mutated in one of the three sites, three mutated in two sites, and one mutated in all three sites. Whereas these promoters had reduced antibiotic (PI)-induced activity, their levels of expression in the absence of PI was higher. This suggested an unusual regulatory mechanism in which Pip could act either as an activator or repressor. Gel shift experiments revealed Pip or its homologues in many other Streptomyces species, suggesting that it is widely employed in the regulation of antibiotic resistance genes and perhaps secondary metabolism.

    Notes: A multidrug resistance gene (mdr) has been cloned from Streptomyces pristinaespiralis, a producer of two antibiotics having synergistic activities together known as pristinamycin. This gene, ptr, provides resistance not only to two structurally dissimilar compounds (pristinamycin I, PI; pristinamycin II, PII) and the natural pristinamycin mixture but also to rifampicin. Mutagenesis and subcloning of ptr localized it to a 2 kb region which was sequenced and analysed. It contained an open reading frame of 1506 bp which encoded a putative membrane protein with 14 hydrophobic domains, and showed sequence similarity to a superfamily of bacterial proteins that employ transmembrane electrochemical gradients to catalyse active efflux of various antibiotics and toxic compounds. Ptr was most similar to a subfamily which included other mdr genes and antibiotic transport genes associated with antibiotic biosynthetic gene clusters in actinomycetes. In vitro coupled transcription-translation experiments were used to identify the ptr gene product. Analysis of the upstream region did not reveal a divergently transcribed repressor gene, as is the case for several related resistance determinants involved in antibiotic transport, suggesting that ptr is regulated by a different mechanism. Transcriptional analyses of this gene, carried out in both S. pristinaespiralis and Streptomyces lividans, indicated the same transcriptional start point and predicted −10 and −35 hexamers which were somewhat similar to Streptomyces vegetative-type promoters.

    Notes: Changes in expression of ribosomal protein genes during growth and stationary phase of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) in liquid medium were studied. Proteins being synthesized were pulse-labelled with [35 S]-methionine, separated by two-dimensional poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis, and quantified using the Bioimage computer software. Most of the ribosomal proteins were synthesized throughout the life cycle. Exceptions were two proteins whose synthesis drastically decreased at the approach of stationary phase. These two proteins were identified in purified ribosomes as homologues of Escherichia coli ribosomal proteins L10 and L7/L12, using antibodies raised against fusion proteins between these ribosomal proteins and Escherichia coliβ-galactosldase. The genes (rplJ and rplL) encoding the L10 and L7/L12 proteins were contained in a 1.2 kb BamHl fragment that was cloned and sequenced. The linkage and order of the genes coincide with other L10-L7/L12 operons. However, L11 and L1 genes were not present immediately upstream of the L10 gene, as is the case for E. coli and other bacteria. Instead, two open reading frames of unknown function were found immediately upstream of the L10 gene, in an adjacent 1.9 kb BamHl fragment.

    Notes: Thermally induced expression of the heat-shock gene groEL is subject to post-transcriptional regulation in Streptomyces albus. When S. albus cells were shifted from 30°C to 41°C, synthesis of three GroEL-like proteins was induced from two genes transcribed from associated promoters P1 and P2. Surprisingly, analyses of transcriptional fusions of these promoters with various reporter genes Indicated constitutive expression independent of heat shock. In contrast, neo expression was thermally inducible as a GroELI-APH translational fusion protein. Furthermore, expression of the groEL1-neo gene was heat Inducible even after the groEL1 promoter region was replaced by a heteroiogous non-heat-inducible promoter such as the Escherichia coli lac promoter. Finally, synthesis of GroE proteins, as well as the GroEL-APH fusion protein, was heat inducible when their transcription was inhibited by rifampicin. Post-transcriptional regulatory signals needed for heat-induced GroEL1 synthesis were mapped within of the groEL 1 structural gene.
