Daptomycin is a new lipopeptide antibiotic for treatment of severe infection caused by multi-drug-resistant bacteria, but its production cost remains high currently. Thus, it is very important to improve the fermentation ability of the daptomycin producer Streptomyces roseosporus. Here, we found that the deletion of proteasome in S. roseosporus would result in the loss of ability to produce daptomycin. Therefore, transcriptome and 4D label-free proteome analyses of the proteasome mutant (Δprc) and wild type were carried out, showing 457 differential genes. Further, five genes were screened by integrated crotonylation omics analysis. Among them, two genes (orf04750/orf05959) could significantly promote the daptomycin synthesis by overexpression, and the fermentation yield in shake flask increased by 54% and 76.7%, respectively. By enhancing the crotonylation modification via lysine site mutation (K-Q), the daptomycin production in shake flask was finally increased by 98.8% and 206.3%, respectively. This result proved that the crotonylation modification of appropriate proteins could effectively modulate daptomycin biosynthesis. In summary, we established a novel strategy of gene screen for antibiotic biosynthesis process, which is more convenient than the previous screening method based on pathway-specific regulators. Key points: • Δprc strain has lost the ability of daptomycin production • Five genes were screened by multi-omics analysis • Two genes (orf04750/orf05959) could promote the daptomycin synthesis by overexpression [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
