Integrated proteomic and acetylomic analyses reveal the metabolic reprogramming associated with increased tylosin-equivalent concentration in Streptomyces xinghaiensis sf106-B1.
Abstract
Deciphering the metabolic basis of high-yield antibiotic production in Streptomyces is crucial for strain optimization. Atmospheric and room-temperature plasma (ARTP) mutagenesis of Streptomyces xinghaiensis sf106 generated a mutant with a 30% increase in tylosin-equivalent concentration (μg/mL). 4D-FastDIA quantitative proteomics identified 279 differentially abundant proteins enriched in the Type I polyketide synthase (PKS) pathway, with increased abundance of key macrolide-biosynthesis-related proteins. Lysine-acetylome profiling identified 1152 differentially abundant acetylation sites and revealed altered acetylation of enzymes involved in fatty acid metabolism and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, suggesting adjustments in central metabolism associated with acyl-CoA precursor availability and energy generation. Integration of proteomic and acetylomic data suggests coordinated changes in protein abundance and lysine acetylation associated with the increased tylosin-equivalent concentration. These results highlight candidate nodes for rational metabolic engineering of S. xinghaiensis.
