BackgroundStreptomyces aureofaciens strain A6-9, obtained with traditional mutagenesis, produces elevated levels of 6-DCT. The increased formation of 6-DCT may be attributable to the changes in the expression of some proteins in the 6-DCT biosynthetic pathway. For this reason, we explored the differences in protein expression between A6-9 and wild-type (WT) strains of Streptomyces aureofaciens, and based on the differences (CtcH and CtcJ were overexpressed in A6-9), investigated the roles of CtcH and CtcJ in biosynthesis.ResultsTwo-dimensional gel electrophoresis and a Mascot search indicated that some enzymes (including CtcH and CtcJ) involved in the primary and secondary metabolism were more strongly expressed in the high-6-DCT-yielding strain A6-9 than in the WT strain DT1. To examine the roles of CtcH and CtcJ in 6-DCT biosynthesis, ctcH-deleted, ctcJ-deleted, ctcH-overexpressing, and ctcJ-overexpressing mutants and a mutant overexpressing both ctcH and ctcJ were constructed. Compared with WT, 6-DCT production was 50 and 37 % higher in the ctcH-overexpressing and ctcJ-overexpressing strains, respectively, and increased by 60 % in the ctcH–ctcJ-overexpressing strain. The ctcH-deleted and ctcJ-deleted strains produced almost no 6-DCT. Analysis of the metabolic flux distribution indicated that ctcH encodes a hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and ctcJ encodes a monooxygenase that are essential for 6-DCT biosynthesis.ConclusionProtein expression differs between high-6-DCT-yielding and WT strains, and the enzymes increased in the high-6-DCT-yielding strain explain the increased 6-DCT production. ctcH encodes a hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and ctcJ encodes a monooxygenase that are essential for 6-DCT biosynthesis.
