Novel aceQ and aceR genes involved in the acetan (cas 110865-71-9) biosynthesis of Acetobacter xylinum were newly isolated. The homology search with DNA Data Bank of Japan indicated that aceQ and aceR were glycosyltransferases. Their gene-disrupted mutants were obtained by homologous recombination using the tetracycline resistance gene and the electroporation method. By NMR and ESI-MS analyses, aceQ-disrupted mutant DQ was found to secrete a water-soluble polysaccharide harboring the -Man-GlcUA side chain and the aceR-disrupted mutant DR was found to secrete an acetan analog, lacking the terminal Rha residue. These results suggested that aceQ and aceR encode a glucosyltransferase and a rhamnosyltransferase, respectively. It was indicated that acetan analogs harboring various side chains can be generated easily by genetic engineering.
