Figure 1 Construct for Heterologous Expression (A) The penicillin biosynthesis gene cluster in Penicillium chrysogenum showing the size (in kilobases) of the region and the relative positions of the genes on the chromosome. The positions of three introns in penDE are shown by breaks in the arrow. (B) Final plasmid p331 for expression in A. nidulans. Gene coding regions are shown by solid yellow arrows. Red blocks indicate the position of the 2A sequences and the gray block, the sequence encoding the V5 epitope tag. Other pertinent parts of the plasmid indicated by arrows include the promoter of the P. chrysogenum xylP gene (pXyl), the terminator of the A. nidulans trpC gene (tTrpc), the argB selectable marker for the host A. nidulans, and the components of the backbone pYES2 vector relevant to replication and selection in yeast and E. coli. Gen3, geneticin resistance gene. Chemistry & Biology 2014 21, 502-508DOI: (10.1016/j.chembiol.2014.02.010) Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Ltd Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Heterologous Expression of a Natural Product Gene Cluster (A) Example of preliminary screening of A. nidulans transformants. Following selection for arginine prototrophy, transformant colonies were grown for 24 hr at 27°C on AMM agar containing ammonium tartrate as the sole nitrogen source and either glucose or xylose as the sole carbon source. Plates were overlaid with molten medium containing the indicator bacterium, B. calidolactis, and further incubated at 50°C overnight. The halo (indicated by +) around the fungal colony reveals the production of an antibacterial substance compared to a nonproducer (−). (B) Representative time course comparison of antibacterial production in transformants 331-T25 (♦) and 62-C1 (▪) grown in liquid AMM containing 2% xylose and 5 mM ammonium tartrate. Antibacterial activity values are arbitrary units derived from the diameter of the inhibition halo (including the 1 cm well) per milligram dry weight of the 20 ml culture biomass. Three independent growth experiments were carried out with the SD being no more that 10%.

Figure 3 Molecular Analysis of Expression (A) Northern blot of total RNA isolated from transformants 331-T3, 331-T25, 62-C1, and wild-type 0760 grown under noninducing (glucose [G]) or inducing (xylose [X]) conditions. The upper panel shows the blot probed with a 700-base-pair fragment of the pcbAB gene and hybridization visualized as detailed in the Experimental Procedures. The positions of the bands of the RNA size ladder are shown on the left. The lower panel shows a section of the ethidium bromide stained gel prior to blotting, with the ribosomal RNA bands indicating approximate equality of RNA loading. The polycistronic transcript is indicated by the arrow. (B) Immunoblot analysis of transformants 331-T3, 331-T25, 62-C1, and wild-type 0760. Proteins were prepared from strains grown under noninducing (glucose [G]) or inducing (xylose [X]) conditions. The V5-tagged protein was detected by anti-V5 HRP-conjugated antibody. Molecular size markers (in kilodaltons) are shown at the right. Chemistry & Biology 2014 21, 502-508DOI: (10.1016/j.chembiol.2014.02.010) Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Ltd Terms and Conditions
