Engineering Streptomyces coelicolor for heterologous expression of the thiopeptide GE2270A-A cautionary tale.

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
The thiopeptide GE2270A is a clinically relevant, ribosomally synthesised, and post-translationally modified peptide naturally produced by Planobispora rosea. Due to the genetically intractable nature of P. rosea, heterologous expression is considered a possible route to yield improvement. In this study, we focused on improving GE2270A production through heterologous expression of the biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) in the model organism Streptomyces coelicolor M1146. A statistically significant yield improvement was obtained in the S. coelicolor system through the data-driven rational engineering of the BGC, including the introduction of additional copies of key biosynthetic and regulatory genes. However, despite our best efforts, the highest production level observed in the strains generated in this study is 12× lower than published titres achieved in the natural producer and 50× lower than published titres obtained using Nonomuraea ATCC 39727 as expression host. These results suggest that, while using the most genetically amenable strain as host can be the right choice when exploring different BGC designs, the choice of the most suitable host has a major effect on the achievable yield and should be carefully considered. The analysis of the multiomics data obtained in this study suggests an important role of PbtX in GE2270A biosynthesis and provides insights into the differences in production metabolic profiles between the different strains. One Sentence Summary: Data-driven rational engineering of Streptomyces coelicolor for heterologous production of the thiopeptide antibiotic GE2270A resulted in increased production but encountered unexpected challenges compared to production in the natural producer or the alternative host Nonomuraea ATCC 39727.
