Production of distinct labdane-type diterpenoids using a novel cryptic labdane-like cluster from Streptomyces thermocarboxydus K155
2019
Bioinformatic mining of the Streptomyces thermocarboxydus K155 genome predicted the presence of four synthases for the production of geosmin, hopene, albaflavenone, and a type B-type A diterpenoid system like that described for labdane-related diterpenoids (LRD). The lrd cluster was comprised by an operon of four genes (lrdABDC). This cluster seemed to be silent in the wild-type strain, as neither labdane nor terpene-like compounds were detected by UPLC-TOF-MS and GC-MS analyses in both culture supernatants and mycelial extracts. Heterologous expression of the lrdABDC cluster in a defective cyslabdan producer (Streptomyces cyslabdanicus K04-0144Δcld) generated 8,17-epoxy-7-hydroxy labda-12,14-diene and cyslabdan. The same cluster expressed in the strains Streptomyces coelicolor M1152, Streptomyces peucetius var. caesius, and Streptomyces avermitilis SUKA22 produced the general intermediary labda-8(17), 12(E),14-triene [(E)-biformene]. Besides (E)-biformene, S. coelicolor M1152 and S. avermitilis SUKA22 produced two and three different labdane-type diterpenoids, underlying the relevance of the genetic background of the Streptomyces host in product formation.
