Regulation of antimicrobial activity and xenocoumacins biosynthesis by pH in Xenorhabdus nematophila

Xenocoumacin 1 (Xcn1) and Xenocoumacin 2 (Xcn2) are the main antimicrobial compounds produced by Xenorhabdus nematophila. Culture conditions, including pH, had remarkably distinct effects on the antimicrobial activity of X. nematophila. However, the regulatory mechanism of pH on the antimicrobial ac...

Zusammenfassung:Xenocoumacin 1 (Xcn1) and Xenocoumacin 2 (Xcn2) are the main antimicrobial compounds produced by Xenorhabdus nematophila. Culture conditions, including pH, had remarkably distinct effects on the antimicrobial activity of X. nematophila. However, the regulatory mechanism of pH on the antimicrobial activity and antibiotic production of this bacterium is still lacking. With the increase of initial pH, the antimicrobial activity of X. nematophila YL001 was improved. The levels of Xcn1 and nematophin at pH 8.5 were significantly (P
