A Plant Type III Polyketide Synthase that Produces Pentaketide Chromone
摘要:
A novel plant-specific type III polyketide synthase (PKS) that catalyzes formation of a pentaketide chromone, 5,7-dihydroxy-2-methylchromone, from five molecules of malonyl-CoA, was cloned and sequenced from aloe (Aloe arborescens). Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that Met207 (corresponding to Thr197 in CHS) determines the polyketide chain length and the product specificity of the enzyme; remarkably, replacement of a single amino acid residue, Met207, with Gly yielded a mutant enzyme that efficiently produces aromatic octaketides, SEK4 and SEK4b, the products of the minimal PKS for actinorhodin (act from Streptomyces coelicolor), from eight molecules of malonyl-CoA. This provided new insights into the catalytic functions and specificities of the CHS-superfamily type III PKS enzymes.

synthase (CHS) from Scutellaria baicalensis and stilbene synthase (STS) from Arachis hypogaea accepted CoA esters of long-chain fatty acid (CHS up to the C12 ester, while STS up to the C14 ester) as a starter substrate, and carried out sequential condensations with malonyl-CoA, leading to formation of triketide and tetraketide alpha-pyrones. Interestingly, the C6, C8, and C10 esters were kinetically
黄芩的重组查耳酮合酶 (CHS) 和花生的二苯乙烯合酶 (STS) 接受长链脂肪酸的 CoA 酯(CHS 到 C12 酯,而 STS 到 C14 酯)作为起始底物,并携带与丙二酰辅酶A连续缩合,导致三酮和四酮α-吡喃酮的形成。有趣的是,与生理起始底物相比,C6、C8 和 C10 酯在动力学上更受酶的青睐。kcat/KM 值比对香豆酰辅酶 A 高 1.2 至 1.9 倍。这些酶的催化多样性为 III 型 PKS 反应提供了进一步的机理见解,并表明 CHS 超家族酶参与了植物中长链烷基多酚(如漆酚和银杏酸)的生物合成。

The present invention provides for novel metabolic pathways to convert biomass and other carbohydrate sources to malonyl-CoA derived products, such as hydrocarbons and other bioproducts, under anaerobic conditions and with the net production of ATP. More specifically, the invention provides for a recombinant microorganism comprising one or more native and/or heterologous enzymes that function in one or more engineered metabolic pathways to achieve conversion of a carbohydrate source to, e.g., long-chain hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon derivatives, wherein the one or more native and/or heterologous enzymes is activated, upregulated, downregulated, or deleted. The invention also provides for processes to convert biomass to malonyl-CoA derived products which comprise contacting a carbohydrate source with a recombinant microorganism of the invention.

The cylindrocyclophanes are a family of natural products that share a remarkable paracyclophane carbon scaffold. Using genome sequencing and bioinformatic analyses; we have discovered a biosynthetic gene cluster involved in the assembly of cylindrocyclophane F. Through a combination of in vitro enzyme characterization and feeding Studies, We Confirm the connection between this gene cluster and cylindrocyclophane production, elucidate the chemical events involved in initiating and terminating an unusual type I polyketide synthase assembly line, and discover that macrocycle assembly involves functionalization of an unactivated carbon center.
Substrate Specificity of Chalcone Synthase: Enzymatic Formation of Unnatural Polyketides from Synthetic Cinnamoyl-CoA Analogues
Octaketide synthase, a novel plant-specific type III polyketide synthase from Aloe arborescens, efficiently accepted (2RS)-methylmalonyl-CoA as a sole substrate to produce 6-ethyl-4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyrone. On the other hand, a tetraketide-producing chalcone synthase from Scutellaria baicalensis and a diketide-producing benzalacetone synthase from Rheum palmatum also yielded the unnatural methylated C-9 triketide pyrone as a single product by sequential decarboxylative condensations of three molecules of (2RS)-methylmalonyl-CoA.
