Abstract excerpt
Genetic characterization of afsK-av (SAV3816) in Streptomyces avermitilis ATCC 31272 was performed to evaluate the role(s) of this eukaryotic-type serine-threonine protein kinase (STPK) in the regulation of morphologic differentiation and secondary metabolism. The afsK-av::neo mutant (SJW4001) was defective in sporulation, melanogenesis, and avermectin production. These phenotypic defects were complemented by...
