Regulation of formation of aerial mycelia and spores of Streptomyces viridochromogenes.

Abstract:

:Growth of Streptomyces viridochromogenes on a solid glycerol-NH4NO3 salts medium was accompanied by the formation of aerial mycelia and spores. Adding 0.5% or more casein hydrolysate to the medium stimulated growth while completely repressing the formation of aerial mycelia and spores. This repression was temporary, as evidenced by the fact that transfer of the organisms to media not containing casein hydrolysate resulted in the appearance of aerial mycelia and spores. The effects of individual amino acids were tested. Glycine retarded growth and repressed formation of both aerial mycelia and spores. L-Aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, and L-histidine stimulated or had little effect on growth and repressed formation of spores but not aerial mycelia. Repression by casein hydrolysate could not be attributed to the carbon/nitrogen ratio or the pH of the medium. Adding 1.25 to 2.5 mM adenine to the medium caused a reversal of the casein hydrolysate repression of aerial mycelium formation but did not reverse repression of sporulation. Dimethyladenine and 8-azaguanine had an effect similar to that of adenine, but a variety of other purine or pyrimidine derivatives had no effect on casein hydrolysate repression. The repression of aerial mycelium and spore formation by casein hydrolysate occurred only in media containing 15 mM or more phosphate. Aerial mycelia and spores were formed in media containing casein hydrolysate and 3 mM or less phosphate.
