Nearly all known terpenes are built from the two C5 precursors DMAPP and IPP. This work characterizes several bacterial DMAPP and IPP methyltransferases that convert these building blocks in C6, C7 and C8 prenyl pyrophosphates with selectivity on deprotonation sites and stereoselectivity.
几乎所有已知的萜烯都是由两种 C5 前体 DMAPP 和 IPP 构建而成。这项工作表征了几种细菌 DMAPP 和 IPP 甲基转移酶,这些酶可将这些结构单元转化为 C 6 、C 7和 C 8异戊二烯基焦磷酸,具有去质子化位点选择性和立体选择性。
