چکیده

The Streptomyces coelicolor fab (fatty acid biosynthesis) gene cluster (fabD-fabH-acpP-fabF) is cotranscribed to produce a leaderless mRNA transcript. One of these genes, fabH, encodes a ketoacyl synthase III that is essential to and is proposed to be responsible for initiation of fatty acid biosynthesis in S. coelicolor.

b-Ketoacyl Acyl Carrier Protein Synthase III (FabH) Is Essential for Fatty Acid Biosynthesis in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2)

Streptomyces spp. synthesize the majority of their fatty acids from branched starters such as isobutyryl, isovaleryl, and anteisovaleryl units to give oddand even-numbered fatty acids with a methyl branch at the v-terminus (80 to 90% of total fatty acid content); the remainder are synthesized from straight starters such as acetyl and butyryl units (11, 21). The fatty acid synthase (FAS) of Stre...

Characterization of beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase III from Streptomyces glaucescens and its role in initiation of fatty acid biosynthesis.

The Streptomyces glaucescens fabH gene, encoding beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (beta-ketoacyl-ACP) synthase (KAS) III (FabH), was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and the resulting gene product was purified to homogeneity by metal chelate chromatography. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of the purified protein revealed an Mr of 37,000, while gel filtrati...

Structural Characterisation of the Beta-Ketoacyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Synthases, FabF and FabH, of Yersinia pestis

Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of bubonic, pneumonic, and septicaemic plague, remains a major public health threat, with outbreaks of disease occurring in China, Madagascar, and Peru in the last five years. The existence of multidrug resistant Y. pestis and the potential of this bacterium as a bioterrorism agent illustrates the need for new antimicrobials. The β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier prot...

Purification, characterization, and identification of novel inhibitors of the beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase III (FabH) from Staphylococcus aureus.

Staphylococcus aureus is a versatile and dangerous pathogen and one of the major causes of community-acquired and hospital-acquired infections. The rise of multidrug-resistant strains of S. aureus requires the development of new antibiotics with previously unexploited mechanisms of action, such as inhibition of the beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthase III (FabH). This enzyme initia...
