Effect of α-factor on individual wall mannoproteins fromSaccharomyces cerevisiae acells
1985
Treatment of Saccharomyces cerevisiae a cells with α-factor partially inhibits mannosylation of the high Mr mannoproteins, although there is an increase in the total amount of these molecules present in the wall. They show a similar mobility in SDS-acrylamide gels to those from untreated mnn2 cells. No other significant effects on wall mannoproteins have been observed, except a decrease in the amount of the 29 kDa species.
Two master switch regulators trigger A40926 biosynthesis in Nonomuraea sp. strain ATCC 39727
2015
ABSTRACT The actinomycete Nonomuraea sp. strain ATCC 39727 produces the glycopeptide A40926, the precursor of dalbavancin. Biosynthesis of A40926 is encoded by the dbv gene cluster, which contains 37 protein-coding sequences that participate in antibiotic biosynthesis, regulation, immunity, and export. In addition to the positive regulatory protein Dbv4, the A40926-biosynthetic gene cluster encodes two additional putative regulators, Dbv3 and Dbv6. Independent mutations in these genes, combined with bioassays and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analyses, demonstrated that Dbv3 and Dbv4 are both required for antibiotic production, while inactivation of dbv6 had no effect.
