Abstract

Glycosyltransferase DesVII and its auxiliary partner DesVIII from Streptomyces venezulae, homologs of EryCIII and EryCII in Saccharopolyspora erythraea, have previously been demonstrated to be flexible on their substrates in vitro. Herein, we investigated their in vivo function by interspecies complementation in the mutant strains of Sac. erythraea A226. As desVII and desVIII were concomitantly expressed in the ΔeryCIII mutant, the erythromycin A (Er-A) production was restored. Interestingly, co-expression of desVII and desVIII in the ΔeryBV mutant exhibited an increased Er-A yield by 15 % in comparison to A226. Hence, DesVII/DesVIII not only replaced EryCIII to upload D-desosamine to C5 position of 3-O-mycarosyl erythronolide B (MEB) but also in vivo attached L-mycarose, not D-desosamine to C3 position of erythronolide B (EB) with a higher activity than EryBV. Furthermore, expression of desVII in ΔeryCIII and ΔeryBV-CIII partially restored the Er-A production; however, no Er-A was detected while desVII was expressed in ΔeryBV. It was implicated that DesVII coupled with EryCII to form the DesVII/EryCII complex for attaching above two deoxysugars in the absence of EryCIII in Sac. erythraea. In addition, when desVII and desVIII were co-expressed in ΔeryBV-CII, Er-A was recovered with a lower yield than ΔeryBV-CIII. Our study presents an opportunity with Sac. erythraea as a cell factory for macrolide glycodiversification.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 November 2015.
All research outputs
#21,608,038
of 24,119,703 outputs
Outputs from Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
#6,994
of 8,034 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#245,096
of 287,552 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
#98
of 137 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,119,703 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,034 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 287,552 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 137 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
