metK (from Streptomyces avermitilis, increasing avermectin production)
coding sequence
metK is the S-adenosylmethionine synthetase gene from Streptomyces avermitilis, which was found to stimulate the production of avermectins. When wild-type strain ATCC31267 was transformed with pYJ02 and pYJ03, two metK expression plasmids, avermectin production was increased about 2.0-fold and 5.5-fold compared with that in the control strains, respectively. The avermectin productivity of each culture was quantitatively measured by HPLC analysis.
Instead of changing cell growth or copy effect, metK stimulates the avermectin production by increasing the intracellular concentration of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), an important intermediate product in avermectin production. However, there may be a maximum concentration of SAM for the production of avermectin in S. avermitilis, which means that SAM has no effect when its concentration achieve maximum.
The results of experiments showed that different metK expression levels have different influence on avermectin production in various S. avermitilis strains. The gene expression levels of metK in two engineered strain, GB-165 and 76-05, were much higher than those in wild-type strain, whereas the avermectin productivity in these two strains have not been significantly improved. It is probably because the high expression level of metK limited the of avermectin by overexpression of metK.
