Zusammenfassung: | |
Fungal maleidrides are an important family of bioactive secondary metabolites that consist of 7, 8, or 9-membered carbocycles with one or two fused maleic anhydride moieties. The biosynthesis of byssochlamic acid (a nonadride) and agnestadride A (a heptadride) was investigated through gene disruption and heterologous expression experiments. The results reveal that the precursors for cyclization are formed by an iterative highly reducing fungal polyketide synthase supported by a hydrolase, together with two citrate-processing enzymes. The enigmatic ring formation is catalyzed by two proteins with homology to ketosteroid isomerases, and assisted by two proteins with homology to phosphatidylethanolamine-binding proteins. Ring cycle: The enzymes involved in the cyclization of the maleidride family of bioactive fungal natural products, including agnestadride A and byssochlamic acid, were identified. These previously unknown proteins show homology to ketosteroid isomerases (KI-like) and phosphatidylethanolamine-binding proteins (PEBP-like). | |
