Extracellular and intracellular polyphenol oxidases cause opposite effects on sensitivity of Streptomyces to phenolics: a case of double-edged sword.
Many but not all species of Streptomyces species harbour a bicistronic melC operon, in which melC2 encodes an extracellular tyrosinase (a polyphenol oxidase) and melC1 encodes a helper protein. On the other hand, a melC-homologous operon (melD) is present in all sequenced Streptomyces chromosomes an...
