AbstractThe highly active natural product yatakemycin (YTM) from Streptomyces sp. TP-A0356 is a potent DNA damaging agent with antimicrobial and antitumor properties. The YTM biosynthesis gene cluster (ytk) contains several toxin self-resistance genes. Of these, ytkR2 encodes a DNA glycosylase that is important for YTM production and host survival by excising lethal YTM-adenine lesions from the genome, presumably initiating a base excision repair (BER) pathway.
