A tetO Toolkit To Alter Expression of Genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

abstract：:Streptomycetes are Gram-positive mycelial bacteria, which synthesize a wide range of natural products including over two-thirds of the currently available antibiotics. However, metabolic engineering in Streptomyces species to overproduce a vast of natural products are hampered by a limited number of genetic tools. Her...
