RESUMEN
Insertional mutagenesis is a widely used method to determine the function(s) of a gene. To study the function(s) of the gene nsdAmgh in Streptomyces roseoflavus, a homologous recombination vector pSRNA2500 was structured in this paper. The recombination donor vector was then transformed into Strempomyces roseoflavus strain Men-myco-93-63 by conjugative transfer. The transformants were subjected to selection under the pressure of high temperature and appropriate antibiotics. As a result, several disrupted mutants of nsdAmgh gene, with a phenotype of Am(s)Km(r), were isolated and verified using PCR and Dot-blotting and Southern blotting hybridization methods. Functional analysis showed that the disrupted mutants of nsdAmgh had a two-fold higher inhibition against Verticillium dahlia Kleb than that of the wild strain Men-myco-93-63, which all will provide a new study route for future research about positive and negative regulator in Men-myco-93-63.
