Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a recombinant microorganism expressing avermectin or analogs thereof and construction method thereof, and also relates to a method of producing avermectin or analogs thereof using the recombinant microorganism, and avermectin or analogs thereof obtained using the method. In addition, the present invention further relates to uses of the avermectin or analogs thereof as insecticides. Using the recombinant microorganism of the present invention to produce avermectin or analogs thereof has numerous advantages, for example comprising at least one of the following: good stability, high yield, simple process, environmentally friendly, and greatly saving of production costs.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A recombinant Streptomyces expressing tenvermectin A or tenvermectin B, wherein the recombinant Streptomyces (1) has an inactivated or activity-decreased aveD gene, has an inactivated or activity-decreased aveAI gene, and has a functional milAI gene; or (2) has an inactivated or activity-decreased aveAI gene, and has a functional milAI gene. 2. The recombinant Streptomyces according to claim 1 , wherein the recombinant Streptomyces is Streptomyces avermitilis. 3. A method for producing tenvermectin A or tenvermectin B, the method comprising: culturing the recombinant Streptomyces of claim 1 , and recovering tenvermectin A or tenvermectin B from the culture. 4. A method for constructing the recombinant Streptomyces of claim 1 , said method comprising: providing a Streptomyces to be modified; and inactivating the aveAI gene in the Streptomyces to be modified or decreasing the activity thereof, and introducing the functional milAI gene into the Streptomyces to be modified. 5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the Streptomyces to be modified is Streptomyces avermitilis.
