Development of a strictly regulated xylose-induced expression system in Streptomyces.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundGenetic tools including constitutive and inducible promoters have been developed over the last few decades for strain engineering in Streptomyces. Inducible promoters are useful for controlling gene expression, however only a limited number are applicable to Streptomyces. The aim of this study is to develop a controllable protein expression system based on an inducible promoter using sugar inducer, which has not yet been widely applied in Streptomyces.
resultsTo determine a candidate promoter, inducible protein expression was first examined in Streptomyces avermitilis MA-4680 using various carbon sources. Xylose isomerase (xylA) promoter derived from xylose (xyl) operon was selected due to strong expression of xylose isomerase (XylA) in the presence of D-xylose. Next, a xylose-inducible protein expression system was constructed by investigating heterologous protein expression (chitobiase as a model protein) driven by the xylA promoter in Streptomyces lividans. Chitobiase activity was detected at high levels in S. lividans strain harboring an expression vector with xylA promoter (pXC), under both xylose-induced and non-induced conditions. Thus, S. avermitilis xylR gene, which encodes a putative repressor of xyl operon, was introduced into constructed vectors in order to control protein expression by D-xylose. Among strains constructed in the study, XCPR strain harboring pXCPR vector exhibited strict regulation of protein expression. Chitobiase activity in the XCPR strain was observed to be 24 times higher under xylose-induced conditions than that under non-induced conditions.
conclusionIn this study, a strictly regulated protein expression system was developed based on a xylose-induced system. As far as we could ascertain, this is the first report of engineered inducible protein expression in Streptomyces by means of a xylose-induced system. This system might be applicable for controllable expression of toxic products or in the field of synthetic biology using Streptomyces strains.
