Methodologies used to overproduce drugs using engineered metabolic networks approach.

StrainsDrugsApproachMethodologies

S. rimosus M4018OxytetracyclineEngineered metabolic networksDeletion of zwf1 and zwf2 genes improve the production of oxytetracycline
S. roseosporus DaptomycinEngineered metabolic networksOver-expression of zwf2 gene improve the production of daptomycin
S. lividans Actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosinEngineered metabolic networksDeletion of zwf1 or zwf2 improved actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin production
S. coelicolor A3 (2)Actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosinEngineered metabolic networksDeletion of pfkA2 (phosphofructokinase) gene improve the production of actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin
S. noursei NRRL 5126ε-Poly-l-LysineEngineered metabolic networksSupplementation of citric acid and L-Asp increases poly-ε-lysine production
S. tsukubaensis FK506 (tacrolimus)Engineered metabolic networksEnhancing the biosyntheses of methoxymalonyl-ACP and allylmalonyl-CoA together with optimized glucose concentrations enhances the FK506 production
S. peucetius ATCC 27952DoxorubicinEngineered metabolic networksOver-expression of potential biosynthetic sugar genes and glycosyltransferase enhanced doxorubicin production
