Production of aminoglycosides in non-aminoglycoside producing Streptomyces lividans TK24

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2007 Apr 1;17(7):1892-6. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2007.01.035. Epub 2007 Jan 19.

Abstract

The pRBM4 cosmid, which harbors a putative cluster of genes spanning a 31.8-kb chromosomal region of the ribostamycin producer Streptomyces ribosidificus ATCC 21294, was heterologously expressed in Streptomyces lividans TK24. ESI-MS/MS, HPLC, and LC-ESI MS analyses showed that the transformation gave rise to ribostamycin production in various culture broths. This is the first report of heterologous aminoglycoside production.
