To investigate why more tylosin was produced when Streptomyces fradiae T1558 was cultured in a rapeseed oil medium than in a glucose or starch medium, we measured the activity of methylmalonyl-CoA carboxyltransferase (EC 2.1.3.1) and intracellular propionic acid. The activity of the enzyme, which catalyzes the formation of the precursor of tylosin, protylonolide, was 0.19 U/mg protein in 5 days of culture in rapeseed oil medium, which was 2.5- and 1.3-fold that with the glucose or starch medium, respectively. The intracellular propionic acid concentration was 1.2 g/g of dry weight, which was 4.3- and 2.1-fold that with the glucose or starch medium, respectively. The addition of propionic acid increased tylosin production in batch culture: when 0.2 g/l (final concentration) propionic acid was added to the glucose medium, 3.8 g/l tylosin was produced in 10 days of culture, 4.7-fold the amount without propionic acid. These findings suggest that in glucose medium, intracellular propionic acid is a limiting factor because of the low activity of methylmalonyl-CoA carboxyltransferase of the tylosin biosynthesis pathway.
