A number of natural products contain a 2-amino-3-hydroxycyclopent-2-enone five membered ring, termed C(5)N, which is condensed via an amide linkage to a variety of polyketide-derived polyenoic acid scaffolds. Bacterial genome mining indicates three tandem ORFs that may be involved in C(5)N formation and subsequent installation in amide linkages. We show that the protein products of three tandem ORFs
