Regulation of the AbrA1/A2 two-component system in Streptomyces coelicolor and the potential of its deletion strain as a heterologous host for antibiotic production.

The Two-Component System (TCS) AbrA1/A2 from Streptomyces coelicolor M145 is a negative regulator of antibiotic production and morphological differentiation. In this work we show that it is able to auto-regulate its expression, exerting a positive induction of its own operon promoter, and that its a...
