Abstract
Streptomyces genus produces a large number of antibiotics, which are always synthesized by specific biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). To resist autotoxicity, transporters encoded by genes located within BGC occasionally pump antibiotic along with transporter encoded by gene located outside BGC. Daunorubicin is an anthracycline antibiotic biosynthesized by Streptomyces species, playing a crucial role in the treatment of leukaemia. In existing studies, only one two-component ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, encoded by drrA1-drrB1 (abbreviated as drrAB1) and located within the daunorubicin BGC, has been proven to extrude daunorubicin. In this work, two other two-component ABC transporters, encoded by drrAB2 and drrAB3 and located outside the cluster, were found to play the complementary role in daunorubicin efflux in S. coeruleorubidus. Disruption of three drrABs resulted in a 94% decrease in daunorubicin production. Furthermore, drrAB2 is regulated by the TetR family regulator DrrR1, responding to the intracellular accumulation of daunorubicin and suggesting its role in stress response and self-resistance. Although the homologues of DrrAB1 are only found in three anthracycline BGCs, the homologues of DrrAB2 and DrrAB3 are spread in many Streptomyces strains which do not contain any known anthracycline BGC. This indicates that DrrAB2 and DrrAB3 may recognize and extrude a broader range of substrates besides daunorubicin, thus playing a more extensive role in cellular detoxification.

Abstract
The genus Streptomyces is intensively studied due to its excellent ability to produce secondary metabolites with diverse bioactivities. In particular, adequate precursors of secondary metabolites as well as sophisticated post modification systems make some high-yield industrial strains of Streptomyces the promising chassis for the heterologous production of natural products. However, lack of efficient genetic tools for the manipulation of industrial strains, especially the episomal vector independent tools suitable for large DNA fragment deletion, makes it difficult to remold the metabolic pathways and streamline the genomes in these strains. In this respect, we developed an efficient deletion system independent of the episomal vector for large DNA fragment deletion. Based on this system, four large segments of DNA, ranging in length from 10 kb to 200 kb, were knocked out successfully from three industrial Streptomyces strains without any marker left. Notably, compared to the classical deletion system used in Streptomyces, this deletion system takes about 25% less time in our cases. This work provides a very effective tool for further genetic engineering of the industrial Streptomyces.

Abstract
Actinomycetes are recognized as excellent producers of microbial natural products, which have a wide range of applications, especially in medicine, agriculture and stockbreeding. The three main indexes of industrialization (titer, purity and stability) must be taken into overall consideration in the manufacturing process of natural products. Over the past decades, synthetic biology techniques have expedited the development of industrially competitive strains with excellent performances. Here, we summarize various rational engineering strategies for upgrading the performance of industrial actinomycetes, which include enhancing the yield of natural products, eliminating the by-products and improving the genetic stability of engineered strains. Furthermore, the current challenges and future perspectives for optimizing the industrial strains more systematically through combinatorial engineering strategies are also discussed.

Abstract
Amylases and proteases are among the industrially most important enzymes for food processing, animal feed, brewing, starch processing, detergents, healthcare, leather processing, and biofuel production. In this study, we investigated the growth kinetics and statistically optimized the co-production of amylase and protease in a phylogenetically novel haloalkaliphilic actinomycete, Streptomyces lopnurensis KaM5 of seawater. The Plackett-Berman design using Minitab 14.0 software was employed to assess the impact of the nutritional factors, temperature, pH, and incubation time. Further, starch, yeast extract, NaCl concentrations, and incubation time were optimized by Box-Behnken design at their three levels. The Pareto charts, contour, surface plots, and individual factorial analysis expressed the variability and levels for the optimal enzyme production. ANOVA analysis admitted the statistical fitness and significance level among the variables. A two-fold increase in enzyme production was achieved by cost-effective co-production media. The study was further extended to growth kinetics associated with enzyme production. Specific growth rate (μ), maximal cell mass (Xmax), volumetric product formation (Pmax), rate of product formation (Qp), and generation time (g) were computed and analyzed. These parameters significantly improved when compared with the pre-optimized conditions, and the production economics of the enzyme was industrially viable. The initial studies on the characteristics of the enzymes suggested its ability to function under the combination of alkaline pH and high salt concentrations. The co-production of enzymes from extremophiles can be a potentially viable option for large-scale production and applications.

Enhanced Triacylglycerol Metabolism Contributes to Efficient Oil Utilization and High-Level Production of Salinomycin in Streptomyces albus ZD11. Appl Environ Microbiol 2020; 86:AEM.00763-20.

Abstract
Streptomyces is well known for biosynthesis of secondary metabolites with diverse bioactivities. Although oils have been employed as carbon sources to produce polyketide antibiotics for several industrial Streptomyces strains, the intrinsic correlation between oil utilization and high production of antibiotics still remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the correlation between oil metabolism and salinomycin biosynthesis in Streptomyces albus ZD11, which employs soybean oil as the main carbon source. Comparative genomic analysis revealed the enrichment of genes related to triacylglycerol (TAG) metabolism in S. albus ZD11. Transcriptomic profiling further confirmed the enhancement of TAG metabolism and acyl coenzyme A biosynthesis in S. albus ZD11. Multiple secreted lipases, which catalyze TAG hydrolysis, were seen to be working in a synergistic and complementary manner in aiding the efficient and stable hydrolyzation of TAGs. Together, our results suggest that enhanced TAG hydrolysis and fatty acid degradation contribute to the high efficiency of oil utilization in S. albus ZD11 in order to provide abundant carbon precursors for cell growth and salinomycin biosynthesis.IMPORTANCE In order to obtain high-level production of antibiotics, oils have been used as the main carbon source for some Streptomyces strains. Based on multiomics analysis, this study provides insight into the relationship between triacylglycerol (TAG) metabolism and antibiotic biosynthesis in S. albus ZD11, an oil-preferring industrial Streptomyces strain. Our investigation into TAG hydrolysis yielded further evidence that this strain utilizes complicated strategies enabling an efficient TAG metabolism. In addition, a novel secreted lipase was identified that exhibited highly hydrolytic activity for medium- and long-chain TAGs. Our findings represent a good start toward clarifying the complicated relationship between TAG catabolism and high-level antibiotic production in the industrial strains.

Abstract
Mannitol can be obtained as a by-product of certain heterolactic lactic acid bacteria, when grown on substrates containing fructose. Lactococcus lactis, a homolactic lactic acid bacterium, normally does not form mannitol but can be persuaded into doing so by expressing certain foreign enzyme activities. In this study, we find that L. lactis has an inherent capacity to form mannitol from glucose. By adaptively evolving L. lactis or derivatives blocked in NAD+ regenerating pathways, we manage to accelerate growth on mannitol. When cells of the adapted strains are resuspended in buffer containing glucose, 4-58% of the glucose metabolized is converted into mannitol, in contrast to nonadapted strains. The highest conversion was obtained for a strain lacking all major NAD+ regenerating pathways. Mannitol had an inhibitory effect on the conversion, which we speculated was due to the mannitol uptake system. After its inactivation, 60% of the glucose was converted into mannitol by cells suspended in glucose buffer. Using a two-stage setup, where biomass first was accumulated by aerated culturing, followed by a nonaerated phase (static conditions), it was possible to obtain 6.1 g/L mannitol, where 60% of the glucose had been converted into mannitol, which is the highest yield reported for L. lactis.

Abstract
Streptomyces is taken as an important resource for producing the most abundant antibiotics and other bio-active natural products, which have been widely used in pharmaceutical and agricultural areas. Usually they are biosynthesized through secondary metabolic pathways encoded by cluster situated genes. And these gene clusters are stringently regulated by interweaved transcriptional regulatory cascades. In the past decades, great advances have been made to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms involved in antibiotic production in Streptomyces. In this review, we summarized the recent advances on the regulatory cascades of antibiotic production in Streptomyces from the following four levels: the signals triggering the biosynthesis, the global regulators, the pathway-specific regulators and the feedback regulation. The production of antibiotic can be largely enhanced by rewiring the regulatory networks, such as overexpression of positive regulators, inactivation of repressors, fine-tuning of the feedback and ribosomal engineering in Streptomyces. The enormous amount of genomic sequencing data implies that the Streptomyces has potential to produce much more antibiotics for the great diversities and wide distributions of biosynthetic gene clusters in Streptomyces genomes. Most of these gene clusters are defined cryptic for unknown or undetectable natural products. In the synthetic biology era, activation of the cryptic gene clusters has been successfully achieved by manipulation of the regulatory genes. Chemical elicitors, rewiring regulatory gene and ribosomal engineering have been employed to crack the potential of cryptic gene clusters. These have been proposed as the most promising strategy to discover new antibiotics. For the complex of regulatory network in Streptomyces, we proposed that the discovery of new antibiotics and the optimization of industrial strains would be greatly promoted by further understanding the regulatory mechanism of antibiotic production.
