Abstract

More than two-third of known antibiotics are produced by actinomycetes of the genus Streptomyces. Unfortunately, the production rate from Streptomyces natural antibiotic is extremely slow and thus cannot satisfy industrial demand. In this study, the production of antibiotics by Streptomyces is enhanced by a "superplasmid" which including global regulatory factors afsR, cyclic adenosine receptor protein (CRP), RNA polymerase beta subunits (rpoB) with point mutation and acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase gene (accA
