Mechanistic insight for improving butenyl-spinosyn production through combined ARTP/UV mutagenesis and ribosome engineering in Saccharopolyspora pogona. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 11:1329859. [PMID: 38292303 PMCID: PMC10825966 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1329859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Butenyl-spinosyn is a highly effective, wide-spectrum and environmentally-friendly biological insecticide produced by Saccharopolyspora pogona. However, its scale-up is impeded due to its lower titer in wild-type strains. In this work, ARTP/UV mutagenesis and ribosome engineering were employed to enhance the butenyl-spinosyn production, and a stable mutant Saccharopolyspora pogona aG6 with high butenyl-spinosyn yield was successfully obtained. For the first time, the fermentation results in the 5 L bioreactor demonstrated that the butenyl-spinosyn produced by mutant Saccharopolyspora pogona aG6 reached the maximum value of 130 mg/L, almost 4-fold increase over the wild-type strain WT. Furthermore, comparative genomic, transcriptome and target metabolomic analysis revealed that the accumulation of butenyl-spinosyn was promoted by alterations in ribosomal proteins, branched-chain amino acid degradation and oxidative phosphorylation. Conclusively, the proposed model of ribosome engineering combined with ARTP/UV showed the improved biosynthesis regulation of butenyl-spinosyn in S. pogona.

Abstract
Background Butenyl-spinosyn produced by Saccharopolyspora pogona exhibits strong insecticidal activity and a broad pesticidal spectrum. Currently, important functional genes involve in butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis remain unknown, which leads to difficulty in efficiently understanding its regulatory mechanism, and improving its production by metabolic engineering. Results Here, we identified a TetR family transcriptional regulator, SP_2854, that can positively regulate butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis and affect strain growth, glucose consumption, and mycelial morphology in S. pogona. Using targeted metabolomic analyses, we found that SP_2854 overexpression enhanced glucose metabolism, while SP_2854 deletion had the opposite effect. To decipher the overproduction mechanism in detail, comparative proteomic analysis was carried out in the SP-2854 overexpressing mutant and the original strain, and we found that SP_2854 overexpression promoted the expression of proteins involved in glucose metabolism. Conclusion Our findings suggest that SP_2854 can affect strain growth and development and butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis in S. pogona by controlling glucose metabolism. The strategy reported here will be valuable in paving the way for genetic engineering of regulatory elements in actinomycetes to improve important natural products production.

Changes in Oxygen Availability during Glucose-Limited Chemostat Cultivations of Penicillium chrysogenum Lead to Rapid Metabolite, Flux and Productivity Responses. Metabolites 2022; 12:metabo12010045. [PMID: 35050169 PMCID: PMC8780904 DOI: 10.3390/metabo12010045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 01/02/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Bioreactor scale-up from the laboratory scale to the industrial scale has always been a pivotal step in bioprocess development. However, the transition of a bioeconomy from innovation to commercialization is often hampered by performance loss in titer, rate and yield. These are often ascribed to temporal variations of substrate and dissolved oxygen (for instance) in the environment, experienced by microorganisms at the industrial scale. Oscillations in dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration are not uncommon. Furthermore, these fluctuations can be exacerbated with poor mixing and mass transfer limitations, especially in fermentations with filamentous fungus as the microbial cell factory. In this work, the response of glucose-limited chemostat cultures of an industrial Penicillium chrysogenum strain to different dissolved oxygen levels was assessed under both DO shift-down (60% → 20%, 10% and 5%) and DO ramp-down (60% → 0% in 24 h) conditions. Collectively, the results revealed that the penicillin productivity decreased as the DO level dropped down below 20%, while the byproducts, e.g., 6-oxopiperidine-2-carboxylic acid (OPC) and 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6APA), accumulated. Following DO ramp-down, penicillin productivity under DO shift-up experiments returned to its maximum value in 60 h when the DO was reset to 60%. The result showed that a higher cytosolic redox status, indicated by NADH/NAD+, was observed in the presence of insufficient oxygen supply. Consistent with this, flux balance analysis indicated that the flux through the glyoxylate shunt was increased by a factor of 50 at a DO value of 5% compared to the reference control, favoring the maintenance of redox status. Interestingly, it was observed that, in comparison with the reference control, the penicillin productivity was reduced by 25% at a DO value of 5% under steady state conditions. Only a 14% reduction in penicillin productivity was observed as the DO level was ramped down to 0. Furthermore, intracellular levels of amino acids were less sensitive to DO levels at DO shift-down relative to DO ramp-down conditions; this difference could be caused by different timescales between turnover rates of amino acid pools (tens of seconds to minutes) and DO switches (hours to days at steady state and minutes to hours at ramp-down). In summary, this study showed that changes in oxygen availability can lead to rapid metabolite, flux and productivity responses, and dynamic DO perturbations could provide insight into understanding of metabolic responses in large-scale bioreactors.

Abstract
In members of genus Streptomyces, AdpA is a master transcriptional regulator that controls the expression of hundreds of genes involved in morphological differentiation, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, chromosome replication, etc. However, the function of AdpASv, an AdpA ortholog of Streptomyces venezuelae, is unknown. This bacterial species is a natural producer of chloramphenicol and has recently become a model organism for studies on Streptomyces. Here, we demonstrate that AdpASv is essential for differentiation and antibiotic biosynthesis in S. venezuelae and provide evidence suggesting that AdpASv positively regulates its own gene expression. We speculate that the different modes of AdpA-dependent transcriptional autoregulation observed in S. venezuelae and other Streptomyces species reflect the arrangement of AdpA binding sites in relation to the transcription start site. Lastly, we present preliminary data suggesting that AdpA may undergo a proteolytic processing and we speculate that this may potentially constitute a novel regulatory mechanism controlling cellular abundance of AdpA in Streptomyces. IMPORTANCEStreptomyces are well-known producers of valuable secondary metabolites which include a large variety of antibiotics and important model organisms for developmental studies in multicellular bacteria. The conserved transcriptional regulator AdpA of Streptomyces exerts a pleiotropic effect on cellular processes, including the morphological differentiation and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Despite extensive studies, the function of AdpA in these processes remains elusive. This work provides insights into the role of a yet unstudied AdpA ortholog of Streptomyces venezuelae, now considered a novel model organism. We found that AdpA plays essential role in morphological differentiation and biosynthesis of chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum antibiotic. We also propose that AdpA may undergo a proteolytic processing that presumably constitutes a novel mechanism regulating cellular abundance of this master regulator.

Abstract
Actinobacteria are among the most prolific sources of medically and agriculturally important compounds, derived from their biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) for specialized (secondary) pathways of metabolism. Genomics witnesses that the majority of actinobacterial BGCs are silent, most likely due to their low or zero transcription. Much effort is put into the search for approaches towards activation of silent BGCs, as this is believed to revitalize the discovery of novel natural products. We hypothesized that the global transcriptional factor AdpA, due to its highly degenerate operator sequence, could be used to upregulate the expression of silent BGCs. Using Streptomyces cyanogenus S136 as a test case, we showed that plasmids expressing either full-length adpA or its DNA-binding domain led to significant changes in the metabolome. These were evident as changes in the accumulation of colored compounds, bioactivity, as well as the emergence of a new pattern of secondary metabolites as revealed by HPLC-ESI-mass spectrometry. We further focused on the most abundant secondary metabolite and identified it as the polyene antibiotic lucensomycin. Finally, we uncovered the entire gene cluster for lucensomycin biosynthesis (lcm), that remained elusive for five decades until now, and outlined an evidence-based scenario for its adpA-mediated activation.

Impact of Altered Trehalose Metabolism on Physiological Response of Penicillium chrysogenum Chemostat Cultures during Industrially Relevant Rapid Feast/Famine Conditions. Processes (Basel) 2021.

Abstract
Due to insufficient mass transfer and mixing issues, cells in the industrial-scale bioreactor are often forced to experience glucose feast/famine cycles, mostly resulting in reduced commercial metrics (titer, yield and productivity). Trehalose cycling has been confirmed as a double-edged sword in the Penicillium chrysogenum strain, which facilitates the maintenance of a metabolically balanced state, but it consumes extra amounts of the ATP responsible for the repeated breakdown and formation of trehalose molecules in response to extracellular glucose perturbations. This loss of ATP would be in competition with the high ATP-demanding penicillin biosynthesis. In this work, the role of trehalose metabolism was further explored under industrially relevant conditions by cultivating a high-yielding Penicillium chrysogenum strain, and the derived trehalose-null strains in the glucose-limited chemostat system where the glucose feast/famine condition was imposed. This dynamic feast/famine regime with a block-wise feed/no feed regime (36 s on, 324 s off) allows one to generate repetitive cycles of moderate changes in glucose availability. The results obtained using quantitative metabolomics and stoichiometric analysis revealed that the intact trehalose metabolism is vitally important for maintaining penicillin production capacity in the Penicillium chrysogenum strain under both steady state and dynamic conditions. Additionally, cells lacking such a key metabolic regulator would become more sensitive to industrially relevant conditions, and are more able to sustain metabolic rearrangements, which manifests in the shrinkage of the central metabolite pool size and the formation of ATP-consuming futile cycles.

Abstract
Streptomyces is an important treasure trove for natural products discovery. In recent years, many scientists focused on the genetic modification and metabolic regulation of Streptomyces to obtain diverse bioactive compounds with high yields. This review summarized the commonly used regulatory strategies for natural products discovery and overproduction in Streptomyces from three main aspects, including regulator-related strategies, promoter engineering, as well as other strategies employing transposons, signal factors, or feedback regulations. It is expected that the metabolic regulation network of Streptomyces will be elucidated more comprehensively to shed light on natural products research in the future.

Abstract
Bitespiramycin is composed of nine main acylated spiramycin components with isovaleryspiramycin as the major component. However, even with excellent therapeutic effects, its application and industrialization are restricted due to its low titer. In this study, the exogenous addition of A-Factor analogue 1,4-butyrolactone (1,4-BL) stimulated an improvement in bitespiramycin biological titer by 29% with a tiny influence on concentration of major component. Moreover, the mechanism of 1,4-BL stimulating effect was preliminarily explored by the analyses of three key enzyme activities, intracellular metabolite profiling and metabolic flux distribution. All results coordinately revealed that the extensive accumulation of methylmalonyl-CoA and acetyl-CoA was the direct reason for the enhanced bitespiramycin biosynthesis. This study would provide theoretical and technical basis for the application of 1,4-BL addition strategy to industrial bitespiramycin production.
