Monensin, a polyether ionophore antibiotic, is produced byStreptomyces cinnamonensisand worldwide used as a coccidiostat and growth-promoting agent in the field of animal feeding. The monensin biosynthetic gene cluster (mon) has been reported. In this study, the potential functions of three putatively pathway-specific regulators (MonH, MonRI, and MonRII) were clarified. The results from gene inactivation, complementation, and overexpression showed that MonH, MonRI, and MonRII positively regulate monensin production. Both MonH and MonRI are essential for monensin biosynthesis, while MonRII is non-essential and could be completely replaced by additional expression ofmonRI. Transcriptional analysis of themoncluster by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and electrophoresis mobility shift assays (EMSAs) revealed a co-regulatory cascade process. MonH upregulates the transcription ofmonRII, and MonRII in turn enhances the transcription ofmonRI. MonRII is an autorepressor, while MonRI is an autoactivator. MonH activates the transcription ofmonCII-monE, and upregulates the transcription ofmonTthat is repressed by MonRII.monAXandmonDare activated by MonRI, and upregulated by MonRII. Co-regulation of those post-polyketide synthase (post-PKS) genes by MonH, MonRI, and MonRII would contribute to high production of monensin. These results shed new light on the transcriptional regulatory cascades of antibiotic biosynthesis inStreptomyces.
