Abstract
The global regulatory gene, afsR2, from Streptomyces lividans was previously reported to highly stimulate two structurally unrelated antibiotics, actinorhodin and undecylprodigiosin, in both S. lividans and its close relative S. coelicolor. Production of eight avermectin components was also improved in S. avermitilis: the use of wild-type S. avermitilis and its high-producing mutant, transformed by introduction of multiple copies of afsR2, increased the total avermectin productions by 2.3-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively.
