Background  In  Streptomyces coelicolor ,  bldA  encodes the only tRNA for a rare leucine codon, UUA. This tRNA is unnecessary for growth, but is required for some aspects of secondary metabolism and morphological development. We describe a transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of the effects of deleting  bldA  on cellular processes during submerged culture: conditions relevant to the industrial production of antibiotics.    Results  At the end of rapid growth, a co-ordinated transient up-regulation of about 100 genes, including many for ribosomal proteins, was seen in the parent strain but not the Δ bldA  mutant. Increased basal levels of the signal molecule ppGpp in the mutant strain may be responsible for this difference. Transcripts or proteins from a further 147 genes classified as  bldA -influenced were mostly expressed late in culture in the wild-type, though others were significantly transcribed during exponential growth. Some were involved in the biosynthesis of seven secondary metabolites; and some have probable roles in reorganising metabolism after rapid growth. Many of the 147 genes were "function unknown", and may represent unknown aspects of  Streptomyces  biology. Only two of the 147 genes contain a TTA codon, but some effects of  bldA  could be traced to TTA codons in regulatory genes or polycistronic operons. Several proteins were affected post-translationally by the  bldA  deletion. There was a statistically significant but weak positive global correlation between transcript and corresponding protein levels. Different technical limitations of the two approaches were a major cause of discrepancies in the results obtained with them.    Conclusion  Although deletion of  bldA  has very conspicuous effects on the gross phenotype, the  bldA  molecular phenotype revealed by the "dualomic" approach has shown that only about 2% of the genome is affected; but this includes many previously unknown effects at a variety of different levels, including post-translational changes in proteins and global cellular physiology.
