Expression of genes of the Pho regulon is altered in Streptomyces coelicolor

Abstract Most currently used antibiotics originate from Streptomycetes and phosphate limitation is an important trigger of their biosynthesis. Understanding the molecular processes underpinning such regulation is of crucial importance to exploit the great metabolic diversity of these bacteria and ge...
