Prenylation of aromatic compounds is a key tailoring reaction in biosynthesis of bioactive indole-diterpenes. Here, we identify NodD1 as the enzyme responsible for the bisprenylation of nodulisporic acid F. This prenyltransferase showed a preference for its natural indole-diterpene substrate whereas other related enzymes were not able to catalyse this conversion.
芳香族化合物的异戊二烯化是生物活性吲哚二萜生物合成中的关键定制反应。在这里,我们将 NodD1 确定为负责球孢酸 F 双异戊二烯化的酶。这种异戊烯基转移酶显示出对其天然吲哚二萜底物的偏好,而其他相关酶无法催化这种转化。
