Preliminary kinetic analysis of acyl carrier protein-ketoacylsynthase interactions in the actinorhodin minimal polyketide synthase.

چکیده
Interactions between the acyl carrier protein (ACP) and ketoacylsynthase (KS) components of the actinorhodin polyketide synthase have been investigated using kinetic assays. These indicate that for three different quantifiable interactions (acceleration of self-malonylation, initiation and extension) mutations of E47 and E53 residues located on ACP helix II have different effects. Initiation clearly involves interaction between KS(beta) and ACP helix II, but self-malonylation acceleration and extension by KS(alpha) appear not to be affected strongly by the same mutations.

Purification of a malonyltransferase from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and analysis of its genetic determinant.
Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) synthesizes each half molecule of the dimeric polyketide antibiotic actinorhodin (Act) from one acetyl and seven malonyl building units, catalyzed by the Act polyketide synthase (PKS). The synthesis is analogous to fatty acid biosynthesis, and there is evident structural similarity between PKSs of Streptomyces spp. and fatty acid synthases (FASs). Each system shoul...

A fragment of DNA was cloned from the Streptomyces griseus K-63 genome by using genes (act) for the actinorhodin polyketide synthase (PKS) of Streptomyces coelicolor as a probe. Sequencing of a 5.4-kb segment of the cloned DNA revealed a set of five gris open reading frames (ORFs), corresponding to the act PKS genes, in the following order: ORF1 for a ketosynthase, ORF2 for a chain length-deter...
متن کاملEctopic expression of the Streptomyces coelicolor whiE genes for polyketide spore pigment synthesis and their interaction with the act genes for actinorhodin biosynthesis.
The whiE gene cluster of Streptomyces coelicolor is normally expressed shortly before sporulation in the aerial mycelium, leading to production of the grey polyketide spore pigment. By placing the whiE genes under the control of the thiostrepton-inducible tipA promoter, they were artificially expressed on plasmids or in the chromosome during vegetative growth in a strain deleted for the act gen...
متن کاملCatalysis, specificity, and ACP docking site of Streptomyces coelicolor malonyl-CoA:ACP transacylase.
Malonyl-CoA:ACP transacylase (MAT), the fabD gene product of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), participates in both fatty acid and polyketide synthesis pathways, transferring malonyl groups that are used as extender units in chain growth from malonyl-CoA to pathway-specific acyl carrier proteins (ACPs). Here, the 2.0 A structure reveals an invariant arginine bound to an acetate that mimics the mal...
متن کاملSolution structure of B. subtilis acyl carrier protein.
BACKGROUND Acyl carrier protein (ACP) is a fundamental component of fatty acid biosynthesis in which the fatty acid chain is elongated by the fatty acid synthetase system while attached to the 4'-phosphopantetheine prosthetic group (4'-PP) of ACP. Activation of ACP is mediated by holo-acyl carrier protein synthase (ACPS) when ACPS transfers the 4'-PP moiety from coenzyme A (CoA) to Ser36 of apo...
