Title: Isolation and characterization of a native composite transposon, Tn14751, carrying 17.4 kilobases of Corynebacterium glutamicum chromosomal DNA Inui M, Tsuge Y, Suzuki N, Vertes AA, Yukawa H Ref: Applied Environmental Microbiology, 71:407, 2005 : PubMed
A native composite transposon was isolated from Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 14751. This transposon comprises two functional copies of a corynebacterial IS31831-like insertion sequence organized as converging terminal inverted repeats. This novel 20.3-kb element, Tn14751, carries 17.4 kb of C. glutamicum chromosomal DNA containing various genes, including genes involved in purine biosynthesis but not genes related to bacterial warfare, such as genes encoding mediators of antibiotic resistance or extracellular toxins. A derivative of this element carrying a kanamycin resistance cassette, minicomposite Tn14751, transposed into the genome of C. glutamicum at an efficiency of 1.8 x 10(2) transformants per mug of DNA. Random insertion of the Tn14751 derivative carrying the kanamycin resistance cassette into the chromosome was verified by Southern hybridization. This work paves the way for realization of the concept of minimum genome factories in the search for metabolic engineering via genome-scale directed evolution through a combination of random and directed approaches.
The complete genomic sequence of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032, well-known in industry for the production of amino acids, e.g. of L-glutamate and L-lysine was determined. The C. glutamicum genome was found to consist of a single circular chromosome comprising 3282708 base pairs. Several DNA regions of unusual composition were identified that were potentially acquired by horizontal gene transfer, e.g. a segment of DNA from C. diphtheriae and a prophage-containing region. After automated and manual annotation, 3002 protein-coding genes have been identified, and to 2489 of these, functions were assigned by homologies to known proteins. These analyses confirm the taxonomic position of C. glutamicum as related to Mycobacteria and show a broad metabolic diversity as expected for a bacterium living in the soil. As an example for biotechnological application the complete genome sequence was used to reconstruct the metabolic flow of carbon into a number of industrially important products derived from the amino acid L-aspartate.
