The midecamycin producer, S. mycarofaciens mutant, which has propionyl acylase activity, can convert spiramycin into propionyl spiramycin. Plasmid pIJ702 was used as a vector for the cloning of propionyl acylase gene. After shot-gun cloning, the DNA fragments of the mutant were cloned in S. lividans TK54. The results of TLC and HPLC showed that No.9 transformant can convert spiramycin into propionyl spiramycin. It demonstrated that the propionyl acylase gene was cloned and expressed in S. lividans TK54. The insert fragment of No.9 recombinant plasmid is about 4.16 kb. Southern hybridization showed that the fragment originated from S. mycarofaciens mutant. The restriction endonuclease map of No.9 recombinant plasmid was constructed.

Our research showed that propionyl acylase gene is on 4.16kb insert DNA fragment originated from S. mycarofaciens in recombinant plasmid pIJM9. For localization of this gene on 4.16kb insert DNA fragment, sub-cloning has been carried out with religation of BamHI digested plasmid pIJM9. Among the transformants, molecular weight of recombinant plasmid pIJM95 harbouring in No. 5 transformant is 5.0kb. Molecular weight of insert DNA fragment is 0.53kb in this plasmid. In bioconversion experiment for spiramycin of No. 5 transformant, the bioconversion product was analysed with TLC, bioautography, HPLC and mass spectrum (FAB). Results showed that the bioconvert product is propionylspiramycin. No. 5 transformant is able to transform spiramycin into propionylspiramycin. Propionyl acylase gene was locolized on 0.53kb insert DNA fragment of recombinant plasmid pIJM95. Analysis result of DNA sequence showed that content of G + C is 68.2% for 0.53kb insert DNA fragment. More than 70 kinds of restriction endonuclease have cut sit on this fragment. From No.54-No.393 nucleotide, there is an open reading frame, which codes a polypeptide consisted of 122 amino acids. Start codon is ATG, stop codon is TGA.
