Popis: | Integrated transcriptome and proteome studies were performed to investigate sterol biotransformation in wild-type Mycobacterium neoaurum ATCC 25795 ( Mn) and the mutant strains producing steroid intermediates. Transcriptome and proteome studies indicated that several metabolic activities were noticeably dynamic, including cholesterol degradation, central carbon metabolism, cell envelope biosynthesis, glycerol metabolism, and transport. Interestingly, a poor overall correlation between mRNA and translation profiles was found, which might contribute to the metabolic adaptation in cholesterol catabolism. A gene cluster covering 111 genes was discovered to encode for cholesterol catabolism in Mn. Generally, transcription and/or translation of the genes in KstR1 regulon was upregulated, and the induction of genes in KstR2 regulon was not as significant as that of KstR1 regulon. Several induced genes showing potential roles for cholesterol catabolism were found. Further identification of these genes and investigation of the correlation among key metabolic activities could help for the development of efficient steroid-producing strains. |
