The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans uses simple building blocks from primary metabolism and a strategy of modular assembly to build a great diversity of signaling molecules, the ascarosides, which function as a chemical language in this model organism. In the ascarosides, the dideoxysugar ascarylose serves as a scaffold to which diverse moieties from lipid, amino acid, neurotransmitter, and nucleoside metabolism are attached. However, the mechanisms that underlie the highly specific assembly of ascarosides are not understood. We show that the acyl‐CoA synthetase ACS‐7, which localizes to lysosome‐related organelles, is specifically required for the attachment of different building blocks to the 4′‐position of ascr#9. We further show that mutants lacking lysosome‐related organelles are defective in the production of all 4′‐modified ascarosides, thus identifying the waste disposal system of the cell as a hotspot for ascaroside biosynthesis. 相似文献

S ‐Adenosylmethionine (SAM) is one of the most common co‐substrates in enzyme‐catalyzed methylation reactions. Most SAM‐dependent reactions proceed through an SN2 mechanism, whereas a subset of them involves radical intermediates for methylating non‐nucleophilic substrates. Herein, we report the characterization and mechanistic investigation of NosN, a class C radical SAM methyltransferase involved in the biosynthesis of the thiopeptide antibiotic nosiheptide. We show that, in contrast to all known SAM‐dependent methyltransferases, NosN does not produce S ‐adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) as a co‐product. Instead, NosN converts SAM into 5′‐methylthioadenosine as a direct methyl donor, employing a radical‐based mechanism for methylation and releasing 5′‐thioadenosine as a co‐product. A series of biochemical and computational studies allowed us to propose a comprehensive mechanism for NosN catalysis, which represents a new paradigm for enzyme‐catalyzed methylation reactions. 相似文献

The dehydratase domains (DHs) of the iso‐migrastatin (iso‐MGS) polyketide synthase (PKS) were investigated by systematic inactivation of the DHs in module‐6, ‐9, ‐10 of MgsF (i.e., DH6, DH9, DH10) and module‐11 of MgsG (i.e., DH11) in vivo, followed by structural characterization of the metabolites accumulated by the mutants, and biochemical characterization of DH10 in vitro, using polyketide substrate mimics with varying chain lengths. These studies allowed us to assign the functions for all four DHs, identifying DH10 as the dedicated dehydratase that catalyzes the dehydration of the C17 hydroxy group during iso‐MGS biosynthesis. In contrast to canonical DHs that catalyze dehydration of the β‐hydroxy groups of the nascent polyketide intermediates, DH10 acts in a long‐range manner that is unprecedented for type I PKSs, a novel dehydration mechanism that could be exploited for polyketide structural diversity by combinatorial biosynthesis and synthetic biology. 相似文献

Bacterial trans-acyltransferase polyketide synthases (trans-AT PKSs) are multimodular megaenzymes that biosynthesize many bioactive natural products. They contain a remarkable range of domains and module types that introduce different substituents into growing polyketide chains. As one such modification, we recently reported Baeyer–Villiger-type oxygen insertion into nascent polyketide backbones, thereby generating malonyl thioester intermediates. In this work, genome mining focusing on architecturally diverse oxidation modules in trans-AT PKSs led us to the culturable plant symbiont Gynuella sunshinyii, which harbors two distinct modules in one orphan PKS. The PKS product was revealed to be lobatamide A, a potent cytotoxin previously only known from a marine tunicate. Biochemical studies show that one module generates glycolyl thioester intermediates, while the other is proposed to be involved in oxime formation. The data suggest varied roles of oxygenation modules in the biosynthesis of polyketide scaffolds and support the importance of trans-AT PKSs in the specialized metabolism of symbiotic bacteria. 相似文献
