摘要：A 92 kb silent hybrid polyketide and nonribosomal peptide gene cluster in marine-derivedStreptomycespactum SCSIO 02999 was activated by genetically manipulating the regulatory genes, including the knockout of two negative regulators (totR5andtotR3) and overexpression of a positive regulatortotR1, to direct the production of the known totopotensamides (TPMs) A (1) and B (3) and a novel sulfonatecontaining analogue TPM C (2). Inactivation oftotGled to accumulation of TPM B (3) lacking the glycosyl moiety, which indicatedTotGas a dedicated glycosyltransferase in the biosynthesis of 1 and 2.
