In this study, two cephamycin C (CC) overproducers, Streptomyces clavuligerus AK39 and TB3585 strains, and a clavulanic acid (CA) overproducer S. clavuligerus DEPA were subjected to proteomic analysis to elucidate their differential protein expression profiles when compared to that of the standard strain S. clavuligerus NRRL 3585. Two proteomics approaches were employed: 2DE technique coupled with MALDI-TOF/MS and LC-MS/MS. By using two techniques, a total of 40 proteins were identified as upregulated while 70 proteins were downregulated in AK39. For TB3585 strain, a total of 44 proteins were overrepresented while 50 proteins were underrepresented. For both AK39 and TB3585, “Hypothetical/Unknown Proteins” category harbored higher numbers of upregulated proteins which was followed by “Secondary Metabolism”. Both CC overproducers specifically overexpressed enzymes related with CC biosynthesis and underexpressed proteins involved in the biosynthesis of diverse secondary metabolites like clavams and polyketides. As for the DEPA strain, a total of 80 proteins were upregulated, and 174 proteins were downregulated. Upregulated protein categories in DEPA were ranked as “Hypothetical/Unknown”, “Others/General Function”, “DNA Replication, Recombination, Repair, Transcription” and “Secondary Metabolism”, respectively. Three CA biosynthetic enzymes as well as CcaR were overrepresented whereas enzymes of two other secondary metabolites were underrepresented along with two important global regulators. A decrease in amino acid metabolism, particularly in methionine biosynthesis, appeared as one of the prominent mechanisms of success of DEPA strain as a prolific producer of CA. Results described herein provide useful information for further improvement of CC and CA production in S. clavuligerus with rational approaches.

Quantitative expression analysis of the genes potentially involved in clavulanic acid overproduction in streptomyces clavuligerus
Aktaş, Caner; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (2018)
Streptomyces clavuligerus is the producer of the medically important β-lactam antibiotics, including cephamycin C (CC) and the potent β-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid. (CA). We have already undertaken an extensive comparative proteomic analysis by using both 2-DE-MALDI-MS and GeLC-MS approaches between an industrial CA overproducer, namely DEPA and the reference strain NRRL3585. In this context, we documented several differentially expressed (over- and under-represented) proteins accounting for high CA...
Genetic engineering of glycolytic pathway by disrupting glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene in an industrial strain of streptomyces clavuligerus
Sertdemir, İbrahim; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Biology (2013)
Streptomyces clavuligerus is a gram-positive, filamentous bacterium which produces several important secondary metabolites, including isopenicillin N, cephamycin C and the β-lactamase inhibitor, clavulanic acid (CA). CA is being used in combination with commonly used β-lactam antibiotics in order to fight against bacterial infections that are resistant to such antibiotics. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) which is an intermediate product of glycolytic pathway is also used in CA biosynthesis as a crucial sub...
Increasing clavulanic acid production both in wild type and industrial streptomyces clavuligerus strains by amplification of positive regulator claR gene
Mutlu, Alper; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Biology (2012)
Streptomyces clavuligerus is a Gram-positive, filamentous bacterium which produces several important secondary metabolites, including isopenicillin N, cephamycin C and the β-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid. Among these compounds, clavulanic acid is being used in combination with commonly used β-lactam antibiotics in order to fight against bacterial infections that are resistant to such antibiotics. Among these combinations, Augmentin, composed of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, is the most widely presc...
An extracellular - Pepstatin insensitive acid protease produced by Thermoplasma volcanium
Kocabıyık, Semra (Elsevier BV, 2007-01-01)
In this study, some parameters for the production and caseinolytic activity of an extracellular thermostable acid protease from a thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma volcanium were determined. The highest level of growth and enzyme production were detected at pH 3.0 over an incubation period of 192 h at 60 degrees C. The pH optimum for the acid protease activity was 3.0 and the enzyme was fairly stable over a broad pH range (pH 3.0-8.0). The temperature for maximum activity of the enzyme was 55 degrees ...
Genotyping of Anatolian doubled-haploid durum lines with SSR markers
Hakki, EE; Savaskan, C; Akkaya, Mahinur (2001-01-01)
In this study, doubled haploid lines generated from the durum wheat varieties, selections from Middle Anatolian landraces, 'Cakmak-79', 'Berkmen-469' and 'Kunduru-1149' (Savaskan et al., 1997), were analyzed using ten highly polymorphic microsatellite markers for genotyping and evaluation of genetic relationships between and within the doubled-haploid (DH) lines. The average PIC value was found to be 0.531. Populations of doubled-haploid lines of landrace selected cultivars 'Cakmak-79' and 'Kunduru-1149', w...
