Identification of bldA mutants of Streptomyces griseus
The bldA gene (encoding tRNA UUA Leu) from Streptomyces griseus (Sg) was cloned by hybridization with bldA from Streptomyces coelicolor (Sc). Introduction of Sg bldA into Sc bldA mutants restored sporulation and actinorhodin production. Sporulation of a subset of Sg bald mutants, which produce no ae...

Zusammenfassung: | The
bldA gene (encoding tRNA
UUA
Leu) from
Streptomyces griseus (Sg) was cloned by hybridization with
bldA from
Streptomyces coelicolor (Sc). Introduction of
Sg bldA into
Sc bldA mutants restored sporulation and actinorhodin production. Sporulation of a subset of Sg bald mutants, which produce no aerial mycelium or spores, was restored in the presence of
bldA from
Sc or
Sg. The nucleotide sequences of the
bldA alleles from two such bald mutants revealed point mutations in the anticodon stem and the TΨC stem. |
