Identification Of A Novel Actinoplanes Strain Which Produced Nosiheptide And Improved Nosiheptide Yield By Ribosome Engineering

Nosiheptide is an important member of thiopeptide family which was first discovered in 1960s. Nosiheptide has strong activity against MASA etc. Now it's mainly used as a veterinary antibiotic to increase animal intestinal absorb and growth. It has the advantage of low toxicity and few vestigital. Nosiheptide was approved as the third new veterinary new medicine in 1998 in China. Scientists have always being focusing on chemical modification, uncovering the relation between pharmacophore and bioactivation to further increase solution in water and pharmacokinetics stability to develop nosiheptide into human use meidine. In recent years since new zoonosis has a growth happen rate, public healthy event caused by zoonosis have attracted more attention than ever. Besides using the natural product which has novel and special structure and never been used in human as lead compound to chemical modification is consider a short way to develop novel antibiotics. nosiheptide has many advantages in drug development according to the new structure, strong activation, special activate mechanism and less likely to cross resistant to other antibiotics. Above all nosiheptide has huge value and market need.Nosiheptide was produced by three strains, Streptomyces actuosus, Streptomyces antibioticus, Streptomyces glaucogriseus. Streptomyces actuosus was mainly used in industry. Through traditional mutation and fermentation optimizing the yield was about 2000mg/ml in our country which was less than foreign countries. So isolate more prospective production strain to develop and meet the market need seemed necessary. During our further work an actinomycete which can yield a little nosiheptide was isolated (which was named as IMB007 in this research). Its ability to produce nosiheptide didn't increase notability through traditional mutations. In this research we focus on isolate higher yield strain by ribosome engineering to apply ideal strain in future ferment regulation.Ribosome engineering was brought up by Kozo Ochi et al in 2000. microbiology was rational drug resistant mutation and screening through introducing single and combine drug resistant. Metabolite biosynthesis system was activated accompany with ribosome structure change. Some mutants gained remarkable ability to yield metabolite or produced certain metabolite which never produced before. Compared to rational mutantion and rational screening before, ribosome engineering had higher effect and showed good future in microbiology improvement.Firstly, in order to further develop, its taxology and metabolite were investigated by morphological observation, lipid acid of cell wall analytical and 16S rDNA system evolution. HPLC was used to analyse metabolite. The result of cell wall lipid acid showed that the 16 carbon saturation fatty acid was mainly contain in IMB007 which was accord with Actinoplanes.16S rDNA system evolution identification further showed that IMB007 has highest relative to Actinoplanes-sp.03-723-16s-rib.Secondly we introduced ribosome engineering to improve nosiheptide production of IMB007. During first cycle 2*MIC streptomycin (str(?)) and 2*MIC rifampicin (rif(?)) were used to screen single resistant mutants.S63 was selected which had 1.99 fold production of parental strain. R59 was selected which had 1.89 fold production of parental strain. In the next cycle combined 2*MIC streptomycin (strr) and 2*MIC rifampicin (rif(?)) was introduced. SR14 mutant was selected which has 7.9 fold production compared to parental strain. The ferment ability can keep stable through four cycles hereditary investigate.Above results showed that mutant SR14 had a noticeable yield of nosiheptide compare to parental strain and had a stable hereditary which had develop potential.it also convinced that ribosome engineering was feasible in improve Actinoplanes. This method has the advantages of convenient and low cost which was easy to general.Our research first report the nosiheptide produce in Actinoplanes. We also first take ribosome engineering into nosiheptide improvement. Our research apply a novel resource to nosiheptide development, widen the application of ribosome engineering, also apply a model for ribosome engineering using in rare actinomycetes.
