Abstract
The natural soil environment of Streptomyces is characterized by variations in the availability of nitrogen, carbon, phosphate and sulfur, leading to complex primary and secondary metabolisms. Their remarkable ability to adapt to fluctuating nutrient conditions is possible through the utilization of a large amount of substrates by diverse intracellular and extracellular enzymes. Thus, Streptomyces fulfill an important ecological role in soil environments, metabolizing the remains of other organisms. In order to survive under changing conditions in their natural habitats, they have the possibility to fall back on specialized enzymes to utilize diverse nutrients and supply compounds from primary metabolism as precursors for secondary metabolite production. We aimed to summarize the knowledge on the C-, N-, P- and S-metabolisms in the genus Streptomyces as a source of building blocks for the production of antibiotics and other relevant compounds.

Abstract
Streptomyces have a uniquely complex developmental life cycle that involves the coordination of morphological differentiation with the production of numerous bioactive specialized metabolites. The majority of Streptomyces spp. are soil-dwelling saprophytes, while plant pathogenicity is a rare attribute among members of this genus. Phytopathogenic Streptomyces are responsible for economically important diseases such as common scab, which affects potato and other root crops. Following the acquisition of genes encoding virulence factors, Streptomyces pathogens are expected to have specifically adapted their regulatory pathways to enable transition from a primarily saprophytic to a pathogenic lifestyle. Investigations of the regulation of pathogenesis have primarily focused on Streptomyces scabiei and the principal pathogenicity determinant thaxtomin A. The coordination of growth and thaxtomin A production in this species is controlled in a hierarchical manner by cluster-situated regulators, pleiotropic regulators, signalling and plant-derived molecules, and nutrients. Although the majority of phytopathogenic Streptomyces produce thaxtomins, many also produce additional virulence factors, and there are scab-causing pathogens that do not produce thaxtomins. The development of effective control strategies for common scab and other Streptomyces plant diseases requires a more in-depth understanding of the genetic and environmental factors that modulate the plant pathogenic lifestyle of these organisms.

Lejeune C, Cornu D, Sago L, Redeker V, Virolle MJ. The stringent response is strongly activated in the antibiotic producing strain, Streptomyces coelicolor. Res Microbiol 2024; 175:104177.

Abstract
S. lividans and S. coelicolor are phylogenetically closely related strains with different abilities to produce the same specialized metabolites. Previous studies revealed that the strong antibiotic producer, S. coelicolor, had a lower ability to assimilate nitrogen and phosphate than the weak producer, Streptomyces lividans, and this resulted into a lower growth rate. A comparative proteomic dataset was used to establish the consequences of these nutritional stresses on the abundance of proteins of the translational apparatus of these strains, grown in low and high phosphate availability. Our study revealed that most proteins of the translational apparatus were less abundant in S. coelicolor than in S. lividans whereas it was the opposite for ET-Tu 3 and a TrmA-like methyltransferase. The expression of the latter being known to be under the positive control of the stringent response whereas that of the other ribosomal proteins is under its negative control, this indicated the occurrence of a strong activation of the stringent response in S. coelicolor. Furthermore, in S. lividans, ribosomal proteins were more abundant in phosphate proficiency than in phosphate limitation suggesting that a limitation in phosphate, that was also shown to trigger RelA expression, contributes to the induction of the stringent response.

An overview of the two-component system GarR/GarS role on antibiotic production in Streptomyces coelicolor. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 108:306. [PMID: 38656376 PMCID: PMC11043171 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-024-13136-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
The Streptomyces genus comprises Gram-positive bacteria known to produce over two-thirds of the antibiotics used in medical practice. The biosynthesis of these secondary metabolites is highly regulated and influenced by a range of nutrients present in the growth medium. In Streptomyces coelicolor, glucose inhibits the production of actinorhodin (ACT) and undecylprodigiosin (RED) by a process known as carbon catabolite repression (CCR). However, the mechanism mediated by this carbon source still needs to be understood. It has been observed that glucose alters the transcriptomic profile of this actinobacteria, modifying different transcriptional regulators, including some of the one- and two-component systems (TCSs). Under glucose repression, the expression of one of these TCSs SCO6162/SCO6163 was negatively affected. We aimed to study the role of this TCS on secondary metabolite formation to define its influence in this general regulatory process and likely establish its relationship with other transcriptional regulators affecting antibiotic biosynthesis in the Streptomyces genus. In this work, in silico predictions suggested that this TCS can regulate the production of the secondary metabolites ACT and RED by transcriptional regulation and protein-protein interactions of the transcriptional factors (TFs) with other TCSs. These predictions were supported by experimental procedures such as deletion and complementation of the TFs and qPCR experiments. Our results suggest that in the presence of glucose, the TCS SCO6162/SCO6163, named GarR/GarS, is an important negative regulator of the ACT and RED production in S. coelicolor. KEY POINTS: • GarR/GarS is a TCS with domains for signal transduction and response regulation • GarR/GarS is an essential negative regulator of the ACT and RED production • GarR/GarS putatively interacts with and regulates activators of ACT and RED.

Abstract
The increasing number of infections caused by antimicrobial multi-resistant microorganisms has led to the search for new microorganisms capable of producing novel antibiotics. This work proposes Streptomyces pakalii sp. nov. as a new member of the Streptomycetaceae family. The strain ENCB-J15 was isolated from the jungle soil in Palenque National Park, Chiapas, Mexico. The strain formed pale brown, dry, tough, and buried colonies in the agar with no diffusible pigment in GAE (glucose-asparagine-yeast extract) medium. Scanning electron micrographs showed typical mycelium with long chains of smooth and oval-shaped spores (3-10 m). The strain grew in all of the International Streptomyces Project (ISP)'s media at 28-37 °C with a pH of 6-9 and 0-10% NaCl. S. pakalii ENCB-J15 assimilated diverse carbon as well as organic and inorganic nitrogen sources. The strain also exhibited significant inhibitory activity against the prodigiosin synthesis of Serratia marcescens and the inhibition of the formation and destruction of biofilms of ESKAPE strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The draft genome sequencing of ENCB-J15 revealed a 7.6 Mb genome with a high G + C content (71.6%), 6833 total genes, and 6746 genes encoding putative proteins. A total of 26 accessory clusters of proteins associated with carbon sources and amino acid catabolism, DNA modification, and the antibiotic biosynthetic process were annotated. The 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, core-proteome phylogenomic tree, and virtual genome fingerprints support that S. pakalii ENCB-J15 is a new species related to Streptomyces badius and Streptomyces globisporus. Similarly, its average nucleotide identity (ANI) (96.4%), average amino acid identity (AAI) (96.06%), and virtual DNA-DNA hybridization (67.3%) provide evidence to recognize it as a new species. Comparative genomics revealed that S. pakalli and its closest related species maintain a well-conserved genomic synteny. This work proposes Streptomyces pakalii sp. nov. as a novel species that expresses anti-biofilm and anti-quorum sensing activities.

Abstract
Actinomycetes are a distinct group of filamentous bacteria. The Streptomyces genus within this group has been extensively studied over the years, with substantial contributions to society and science. This genus is known for its antimicrobial production, as well as antitumor, biopesticide, and immunomodulatory properties. Therefore, the extraordinary plasticity of the Streptomyces genus has inspired new research techniques. The newest way of exploring Streptomyces has comprised the discovery of new natural metabolites and the application of emerging tools such as CRISPR technology in drug discovery. In this narrative review, we explore relevant published literature concerning the ongoing novelties of the Streptomyces genus.

Abstract
Despite the advances in understanding the regulatory networks for secondary metabolite production in Streptomyces, the participation of the two-component systems (TCS) in this process still requires better characterization. These sensing systems and their responses to environmental stimuli have been described by evaluating mutant strains with techniques that allow in-depth regulatory responses. However, defining the stimulus that triggers their activation is still a task. The transmembrane nature of the sensor kinases and the high content of GC in the streptomycetes represent significant challenges in their study. In some examples, adding elements to the assay medium has determined the respective ligand. However, a complete TCS description and characterization requires specific amounts of the involved proteins that are most difficult to obtain. The availability of enough sensor histidine kinase concentrations could facilitate the identification of the ligand-protein interaction, and besides would allow the establishment of its phosphorylation mechanisms and determine their tridimensional structure. Similarly, the advances in the development of bioinformatics tools and novel experimental techniques also promise to accelerate the TCSs description and provide knowledge on their participation in the regulation processes of secondary metabolite formation. This review aims to summarize the recent advances in the study of TCSs involved in antibiotic biosynthesis and to discuss alternatives to continue their characterization. KEY POINTS: • TCSs are the environmental signal transducers more abundant in nature. • The Streptomyces have some of the highest number of TCSs found in bacteria. • The study of signal transduction between SHKs and RRs domains is a big challenge.

Abstract
Streptomyces coelicolor and Streptomyces lividans constitute model strains to study the regulation of antibiotics biosynthesis in Streptomyces species since these closely related strains possess the same pathways directing the biosynthesis of various antibiotics but only S. coelicolor produces them. To get a better understanding of the origin of the contrasted abilities of these strains to produce bioactive specialized metabolites, these strains were grown in conditions of phosphate limitation or proficiency and a comparative analysis of their transcriptional/regulatory proteins was carried out. The abundance of the vast majority of the 355 proteins detected greatly differed between these two strains and responded differently to phosphate availability. This study confirmed, consistently with previous studies, that S. coelicolor suffers from nitrogen stress. This stress likely triggers the degradation of the nitrogen-rich peptidoglycan cell wall in order to recycle nitrogen present in its constituents, resulting in cell wall stress. When an altered cell wall is unable to fulfill its osmo-protective function, the bacteria also suffer from osmotic stress. This study thus revealed that these three stresses are intimately linked in S. coelicolor. The aggravation of these stresses leading to an increase of antibiotic biosynthesis, the connection between these stresses, and antibiotic production are discussed.

Crosstalk of TetR-like regulator SACE_4839 and a nitrogen regulator for erythromycin biosynthesis. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:6551-6566.

Abstract
TetR family transcriptional regulators (TFRs) are widespread in actinomycetes, which exhibit diverse regulatory modes in antibiotic biosynthesis. Nitrogen regulators play vital roles in modulation of primary and secondary metabolism. However, crosstalk between TFR and nitrogen regulator has rarely been reported in actinomycetes. Herein, we demonstrated that a novel TFR, SACE_4839, was negatively correlated with erythromycin yield in Saccharopolyspora erythraea A226. SACE_4839 indirectly suppressed erythromycin synthetic gene eryAI and resistance gene ermE and directly inhibited its adjacent gene SACE_4838 encoding a homologue of nitrogen metabolite repression (NMR) regulator NmrA (herein named NmrR). The SACE_4839-binding sites within SACE_4839-nmrR intergenic region were identified. NmrR positively controlled erythromycin biosynthesis by indirectly stimulating eryAI and ermE and directly repressing SACE_4839. NmrR was found to affect growth viability under the nitrogen source supply. Furthermore, NmrR directly repressed glutamine and glutamate utilization-related genes SACE_1623, SACE_5070 and SACE_5979 but activated nitrate utilization-associated genes SACE_1163, SACE_4070 and SACE_4912 as well as nitrite utilization-associated genes SACE_1476 and SACE_4514. This is the first reported NmrA homolog for modulating antibiotic biosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism in actinomycetes. Moreover, combinatorial engineering of SACE_4839 and nmrR in the high-yield S. erythraea WB resulted in a 68.8% increase in erythromycin A production. This investigation deepens the understanding of complicated regulatory network for erythromycin biosynthesis. KEY POINTS: • SACE_4839 and NmrR had opposite contributions to erythromycin biosynthesis. • NmrR was first identified as a homolog of another nitrogen regulator NmrA. • Cross regulation between SACE_4839 and NmrR was revealed.

Abstract
Streptomyces, the most abundant and arguably the most important genus of actinomycetes, is an important source of biologically active compounds such as antibiotics, and extracellular hydrolytic enzymes. Since Streptomyces can have a beneficial symbiotic relationship with plants they can contribute to nutrition, health and fitness of the latter. This review article summarizes recent research contributions on the ability of Streptomyces to promote plant growth and improve plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress responses, as well as on the consequences, on plant health, of the enrichment of rhizospheric soils in Streptomyces species. This review summarizes the most recent reports of the contribution of Streptomyces to plant growth, health and fitness and suggests future research directions to promote the use of these bacteria for the development of a cleaner agriculture.

Streptomyces is one of the most relevant genera in biotechnology, and its rich secondary metabolism is responsible for the biosynthesis of a plethora of bioactive compounds, including several clinically relevant drugs. The use of Streptomyces species for the manufacture of natural products has been established for more than half a century; however, the tremendous advances observed in recent years in genetic engineering and molecular biology have revolutionised the optimisation of Streptomyces as cell factories and drastically expanded the biotechnological potential of these bacteria. Here, we illustrate the most exciting advances reported in the past few years, with a particular focus on the approaches significantly improving the biotechnological capacity of Streptomyces to produce clinical drugs and other valuable secondary metabolites.

Abstract
Butenyl-spinosyn, a highly effective biological insecticide, is produced by Saccharopolyspora pogona. However, its application has been severely hampered by its low yield. Recent studies have shown that PhoU plays a pivotal role in regulating cell growth, secondary metabolite biosynthesis and intracellular phosphate levels. Nevertheless, the function of PhoU remains ambiguous in S. pogona. In this study, we investigated the effects of PhoU on the growth and the butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis of S. pogona by constructing the mutants. Overexpression of phoU increased the production of butenyl-spinosyn to 2.2-fold that of the wild-type strain. However, the phoU deletion resulted in a severe imbalance of intracellular phosphate levels, and suppression of the growth and butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis. Quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis, distinctive protein detection and mass spectrometry revealed that PhoU widely regulated primary metabolism, energy metabolism and DNA repair, which implied that PhoU influences the growth and butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis of S. pogona as a global regulator.

Abstract
Streptomyces bacteria produce a wide number of antibiotics and antitumor compounds that have attracted the attention of pharmaceutical and biotech companies. In this study, we provide evidence showing that the xylem sap from grapevines has a positive effect on the production of different antibiotics by several Streptomyces species, including S. ambofaciens ATCC 23877 and S. argillaceus ATCC 12596 among others. The production of several already known compounds was induced: actinomycin D, chromomycin A3, fungichromin B, mithramycin A, etc., and four compounds with molecular formulas not included in the Dictionary of Natural Products (DNP v28.2) were also produced. The molecules present in the xylem sap that acts as elicitors were smaller than 3 kDa and soluble in water and insoluble in ether, ethyl acetate, or methanol. A combination of potassium citrate and di-D-fructose dianhydrides (related to levanbiose or inulobiose) seemed to be the main effectors identified from the active fraction. However, the level of induction obtained in the presence of these compounds mix was weaker and delayed with respect to the one got when using the whole xylem sap or the 3 kDa sap fraction, suggesting that another, not identified, elicitor must be also implied in this induction.

Abstract
Secondary microbial metabolites have various functions for the producer microorganisms, which allow them to interact and survive in adverse environments. In addition to these functions, other biological activities may have clinical relevance, as diverse as antimicrobial, anticancer and hypocholesterolaemic effects. These metabolites are usually formed during the idiophase of growth and have a wide diversity in their chemical structures. Their synthesis is under the impact of the type and concentration of the culture media nutrients. Some of the molecular mechanisms that affect the synthesis of secondary metabolites in bacteria (Gram-positive and negative) and fungi are partially known. Moreover, all microorganisms have their peculiarities in the control mechanisms of carbon sources, even those belonging to the same genus. This regulatory knowledge is necessary to establish culture conditions and manipulation methods for genetic improvement and product fermentation. As the carbon source is one of the essential nutritional factors for antibiotic production, its study has been imperative both at the industrial and research levels. This review aims to draw the utmost recent advances performed to clarify the molecular mechanisms of the negative effect exerted by the carbon source on the secondary metabolite formation, emphasizing those found in Streptomyces, one of the genera most profitable antibiotic producers.

Abstract
The ability of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) to form biofilms is one of the triggering factors for the emergence of MRSA resistance to antibiotics. Streptomyces W-5B has shown potency as an antibacterial producer against MRSA. However, the production of microbial bioactive compounds is strongly affected by the source of nutrients in the fermentation medium. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the optimal sources of carbon and nitrogen for the production of bioactive compounds with antibiofilm activities. The research method included cultivating Streptomyces W-5B, extract production, and variation of carbon (glucose, sucrose, starch) and nitrogen (casein, peptone, urea) sources for fermentation medium. Antibiofilm activities were measured based on inhibition of biofilm formation and biofilm degradation tests using the microtiter plate method with a crystal violet stain. The results showed that the highest inhibition of biofilm formation was 68.206 ± 1.750% after 12 days of incubation in a fermentation medium containing sucrose and urea. Meanwhile, the highest biofilm degradation was 73.023 ± 1.972% after nine days of incubation on a fermentation medium containing starch and urea. These findings indicated that Streptomyces W-5B has the potency to produce antibiofilm extract against MRSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endophytic actinomycetes, as emerging sources of bioactive metabolites, have been paid great attention over the years. Recent reports demonstrated that endophytic streptomycetes could yield compounds with potent anticancer properties that may be developed as chemotherapeutic drugs. RESULTS Here, a total of 15 actinomycete-like isolates were obtained from the root tissues of Lilium davidii var. unicolor (Hoog) Cotton based on their morphological appearance, mycelia coloration and diffusible pigments. The preliminary screening of antagonistic capabilities of the 15 isolates showed that isolate LRE541 displayed antimicrobial activities against all of the seven tested pathogenic microorganisms. Further in vitro cytotoxicity test of the LRE541 extract revealed that this isolate possesses potent anticancer activities with IC50 values of 0.021, 0.2904, 1.484, 4.861, 6.986, 8.106, 10.87, 12.98, and 16.94 μg/mL against cancer cell lines RKO, 7901, HepG2, CAL-27, MCF-7, K562, Hela, SW1990, and A549, respectively. LRE541 was characterized and identified as belonging to the genus Streptomyces based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. It produced extensively branched red substrate and vivid pink aerial hyphae that changed into amaranth, with elliptic spores sessile to the aerial mycelia. To further explore the mechanism underlying the decrease of cancer cell viability following the LRE541 extract treatment, cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest assays were conducted in two cancer cell lines, RKO and 7901. The result demonstrated that LRE541 extract inhibited cell proliferation of RKO and 7901 by causing cell cycle arrest both at the S phase and inducing apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. The chemical profile of LRE541 extract performed by the UHPLC-MS/MS analysis revealed the presence of thirty-nine antitumor compounds in the extract. Further chemical investigation of the LRE541 extract led to the discovery of one prenylated indole diketopiperazine (DKP) alkaloid, elucidated as neoechinulin A, a known antitumor agent firstly detected in Streptomyces; two anthraquinones 4-deoxy-ε-pyrromycinone (1) and epsilon-pyrromycinone (2) both displaying anticancer activities against RKO, SW1990, A549, and HepG2 with IC50 values of 14.96 ± 2.6 - 20.42 ± 4.24 μg/mL for (1); 12.9 ± 2.13, 19.3 ± 4.32, 16.8 ± 0.75, and 18.6 ± 3.03 μg/mL for (2), respectively. CONCLUSION Our work evaluated the anticarcinogenic potential of the endophyte, Streptomyces sp. LRE541 and obtained one prenylated indole diketopiperazine alkaloid and two anthraquinones. Neoechinulin A, as a known antitumor agent, was identified for the first time in Streptomyces. Though previously found in Streptomyces, epsilon-pyrromycinone and 4-deoxy-ε-pyrromycinone were firstly shown to possess anticancer activities.

Abstract
Streptomyces is the largest and most significant genus of Actinobacteria, comprising 961 species. These Gram-positive bacteria produce many versatile and important bioactive compounds; of these, antibiotics, specifically the enhancement or activation of their production, have received extensive research attention. Recently, various biotic and abiotic elicitors have been reported to modify the antibiotic metabolism of Streptomyces, which promotes the production of new antibiotics and bioactive metabolites for improvement in the yields of endogenous products. However, some elicitors that obviously contribute to secondary metabolite production have not yet received sufficient attention. In this study, we have reviewed the functions and mechanisms of chemicals, novel microbial metabolic elicitors, microbial interactions, enzymes, enzyme inhibitors, environmental factors, and novel combination methods regarding antibiotic production in Streptomyces. This review has aimed to identify potentially valuable elicitors for stimulating the production of latent antibiotics or enhancing the synthesis of subsistent antibiotics in Streptomyces. Future applications and challenges in the discovery of new antibiotics and enhancement of existing antibiotic production using elicitors are discussed.

Abstract
The combined biochemical impact of carbon, nitrogen and temperature on the biosynthesis of the antifungal volatile organic compounds (VOCs): ethanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol and 2-phenylethanol produced by Aureobasidium pullulans A1 and A3 was investigated using a Box-Behnken experimental design and response surface methodology (RSM). Normalized peak areas derived from solid phase micro extraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) analysis, indicated that initial carbon content had a significant influence on the biosynthesis of ethanol and alcohols with greater than three carbon atoms. This result suggests a dominant activity of the A. pullulans anabolic pathway to biosynthesize three higher alcohols via de novo biosynthesis of amino acids from sugar metabolism. Low concentrations of carbon (3-13 g l-1 ) with nitrogen as both ammonium and amino acids in the growth medium resulted in a higher number of significant linear and quadratic relationships. Nitrogen availability and growth temperature had significant negative linear and quadratic correlations with VOCs biosynthesis in most instances. Isolate-dependant metabolic response was evident for all abiotic parameters tested on alcohol production. The findings of this study offer new perspectives to improve the production of key antifungal compounds by antagonists in biological control systems.

The Onset of Tacrolimus Biosynthesis in Streptomyces tsukubaensis Is Dependent on the Intracellular Redox Status. Antibiotics (Basel) 2020; 9:antibiotics9100703.

Abstract
The oxidative stress response is a key mechanism that microorganisms have to adapt to changeling environmental conditions. Adaptation is achieved by a fine-tuned molecular response that extends its influence to primary and secondary metabolism. In the past, the role of the intracellular redox status in the biosynthesis of tacrolimus in Streptomyces tsukubaensis has been briefly acknowledged. Here, we investigate the impact of the oxidative stress response on tacrolimus biosynthesis in S. tsukubaensis. Physiological characterization of S. tsukubaensis showed that the onset of tacrolimus biosynthesis coincided with the induction of catalase activity. In addition, tacrolimus displays antioxidant properties and thus a controlled redox environment would be beneficial for its biosynthesis. In addition, S. tsukubaensis ∆ahpC strain, a strain defective in the H2O2-scavenging enzyme AhpC, showed increased production of tacrolimus. Proteomic and transcriptomic studies revealed that the tacrolimus over-production phenotype was correlated with a metabolic rewiring leading to increased availability of tacrolimus biosynthetic precursors. Altogether, our results suggest that the carbon source, mainly used for cell growth, can trigger the production of tacrolimus by modulating the oxidative metabolism to favour a low oxidizing intracellular environment and redirecting the metabolic flux towards the increase availability of biosynthetic precursors.

Abstract
Butenyl-spinosyn produced by Saccharopolyspora pogona exhibits strong insecticidal activity and a broad pesticidal spectrum. Currently, important functional genes involved in butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis remain unknown, which leads to difficulty in efficient understanding of its regulatory mechanism and improving its production by metabolic engineering. Here, we present data supporting a role of the SenX3-RegX3 system in regulating the butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis. EMSAs and qRT-PCR demonstrated that RegX3 positively controls butenyl-spinosyn production in an indirect way. Integrated proteomic and metabolomic analysis, regX3 deletion not only strengthens the basal metabolic ability of S. pogona in the mid-growth phase but also promotes the flow of the acetyl-CoA produced via key metabolic pathways into the TCA cycle rather than the butenyl-spinosyn biosynthetic pathway, which ultimately leads to continued growth but reduced butenyl-spinosyn production. The strategy demonstrated here may be valuable for revealing the regulatory role of the SenX3-RegX3 system in the biosynthesis of other natural products. Butenyl-spinosyn biosynthesis is highly sensitive to Pi control RegX3 regulates polyP accumulation in S. pogona RegX3 may indirectly regulate butenyl-spinosyn production RegX3 plays an important role in the normal growth development of S. pogona

Abstract
Most currently used antibiotics originate from Streptomycetes and phosphate limitation is an important trigger of their biosynthesis. Understanding the molecular processes underpinning such regulation is of crucial importance to exploit the great metabolic diversity of these bacteria and get a better understanding of the role of these molecules in the physiology of the producing bacteria. To contribute to this field, a comparative proteomic analysis of two closely related model strains, Streptomyces lividans and Streptomyces coelicolor was carried out. These strains possess identical biosynthetic pathways directing the synthesis of three well-characterized antibiotics (CDA, RED and ACT) but only S. coelicolor expresses them at a high level. Previous studies established that the antibiotic producer, S. coelicolor, is characterized by an oxidative metabolism and a reduced triacylglycerol content compared to the none producer, S. lividans, characterized by a glycolytic metabolism. Our proteomic data support these findings and reveal that these drastically different metabolic features could, at least in part, due to the weaker abundance of proteins of the two component system PhoR/PhoP in S. coelicolor compared to S. lividans. In condition of phosphate limitation, PhoR/PhoP is known to control positively and negatively, respectively, phosphate and nitrogen assimilation and our study revealed that it might also control the expression of some genes of central carbon metabolism. The tuning down of the regulatory role of PhoR/PhoP in S. coelicolor is thus expected to be correlated with low and high phosphate and nitrogen availability, respectively and with changes in central carbon metabolic features. These changes are likely to be responsible for the observed differences between S. coelicolor and S. lividans concerning energetic metabolism, triacylglycerol biosynthesis and antibiotic production. Furthermore, a novel view of the contribution of the bio-active molecules produced in this context, to the regulation of the energetic metabolism of the producing bacteria, is proposed and discussed.

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.

Abstract
Soil dwelling Streptomyces species are faced with large variations in carbon or nitrogen sources, phosphate, oxygen, iron, sulfur, and other nutrients. These drastic changes in key nutrients result in an unbalanced metabolism that have undesirable consequences for growth, cell differentiation, reproduction, and secondary metabolites biosynthesis. In the last decades evidence has accumulated indicating that mechanisms to correct metabolic unbalances in Streptomyces species take place at the transcriptional level, mediated by different transcriptional factors. For example, the master regulator PhoP and the large SARP-type regulator AfsR bind to overlapping sequences in the afsS promoter and, therefore, compete in the integration of signals of phosphate starvation and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) concentrations. The cross-talk between phosphate control of metabolism, mediated by the PhoR-PhoP system, and the pleiotropic orphan nitrogen regulator GlnR, is very interesting; PhoP represses GlnR and other nitrogen metabolism genes. The mechanisms of control by GlnR of several promoters of ATP binding cassettes (ABC) sugar transporters and carbon metabolism are highly elaborated. Another important cross-talk that governs nitrogen metabolism involves the competition between GlnR and the transcriptional factor MtrA. GlnR and MtrA exert opposite effects on expression of nitrogen metabolism genes. MtrA, under nitrogen rich conditions, represses expression of nitrogen assimilation and regulatory genes, including GlnR, and competes with GlnR for the GlnR binding sites. Strikingly, these sites also bind to PhoP. Novel examples of interacting transcriptional factors, discovered recently, are discussed to provide a broad view of this interactions. Altogether, these findings indicate that cross-talks between the major transcriptional factors protect the cell metabolic balance. A detailed analysis of the transcriptional factors binding sequences suggests that the transcriptional factors interact with specific regions, either by overlapping the recognition sequence of other factors or by binding to adjacent sites in those regions. Additional interactions on the regulatory backbone are provided by sigma factors, highly phosphorylated nucleotides, cyclic dinucleotides, and small ligands that interact with cognate receptor proteins and with TetR-type transcriptional regulators. We propose to define the signal integration DNA regions (so called integrator sites) that assemble responses to different stress, nutritional or environmental signals. These integrator sites constitute nodes recognized by two, three, or more transcriptional factors to compensate the unbalances produced by metabolic stresses. This interplay mechanism acts as a safety net to prevent major damage to the metabolism under extreme nutritional and environmental conditions.

Abstract
With the impending increase of the world population by 2050, more activities have been directed toward the improvement of crop yield and a safe environment. The need for chemical-free agricultural practices is becoming eminent due to the effects of these chemicals on the environment and human health. Actinomycetes constitute a significant percentage of the soil microbial community. The Streptomyces genus, which is the most abundant and arguably the most important actinomycetes, is a good source of bioactive compounds, antibiotics, and extracellular enzymes. These genera have shown over time great potential in improving the future of agriculture. This review highlights and buttresses the agricultural importance of Streptomyces through its biocontrol and plant growth-promoting activities. These activities are highlighted and discussed in this review. Some biocontrol products from this genus are already being marketed while work is still ongoing on this productive genus. Compared to more focus on its biocontrol ability, less work has been done on it as a biofertilizer until recently. This genus is as efficient as a biofertilizer as it is as a biocontrol.
