SAV4189, a MarR-Family Regulator in Streptomyces avermitilis, Activates Avermectin Biosynthesis

The bacterial species Streptomyces avermitilis is an important industrial producer of avermectins, which are widely utilized as effective anthelmintic and insecticidal drugs. We used gene deletion, complementation, and overexpression experiments to identify SAV4189, a MarR-family transcriptional reg...
