Mutational biosynthesis of a FK506 analogue containing a non-natural starter unit.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A FK506 analogue containing a non-natural starter unit was obtained through mutasynthesis by feeding cultures of Streptomyces sp. KCTC 11604BP fkbO deletion mutant with 3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid. The structure of the new compound, 32-dehydroxy-FK506, and its biological activities were determined.

Origin of the allyl group in FK506 biosynthesis.
FK506 (tacrolimus) is a secondary metabolite with a potent immunosuppressive activity, currently registered for use as immunosuppressant after organ transplantation. FK506 and FK520 are biogenetically related natural products that are synthesized by combined polyketide synthase/nonribosomal peptide synthetase systems. The entire gene cluster for biosynthesis of FK520 from Streptomyces hygroscop...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of the immunosuppressants FK506, FK520, and rapamycin involves a previously undescribed family of enzymes acting on chorismate.
The macrocyclic polyketides FK506, FK520, and rapamycin are potent immunosuppressants that prevent T-cell proliferation through initial binding to the immunophilin FKBP12. Analogs of these molecules are of considerable interest as therapeutics in both metastatic and inflammatory disease. For these polyketides the starter unit for chain assembly is (4R,5R)-4,5-dihydroxycyclohex-1-enecarboxylic a...
متن کاملLomaiviticin biosynthesis employs a new strategy for starter unit generation.
Lomaiviticin biosynthesis is thought to utilize a propionyl starter unit for a type II polyketide synthase (PKS). Discovery of the lomaiviticin (lom) biosynthetic gene cluster suggested an unusual method for starter unit generation involving a bifunctional acyltransferase/decarboxylase (AT/DC) thus far observed only in type I PKS pathways. In vitro biochemical characterization of AT/DC Lom62 co...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of trioxacarcin revealing a different starter unit and complex tailoring steps for type II polyketide synthase† †Electronic supplementary information (ESI) available: The experimental procedures, strains, plasmids and PCR primers, and compound characterization. See DOI: 10.1039/c5sc00116a
Trioxacarcins (TXNs) are highly oxygenated, polycyclic aromatic natural products with remarkable biological activity and structural complexity. Evidence from C-labelled precursor feeding studies demonstrated that the scaffold was biosynthesized from one unit of L-isoleucine and nine units of malonyl-CoA, which suggested a different starter unit in the biosynthesis. Genetic analysis of the biosy...
متن کاملThe Streptomyces peucetius dpsC gene determines the choice of starter unit in biosynthesis of the daunorubicin polyketide.
The starter unit used in the biosynthesis of daunorubicin is propionyl coenzyme A (CoA) rather than acetyl-CoA, which is used in the production of most of the bacterial aromatic polyketides studied to date. In the daunorubicin biosynthesis gene cluster of Streptomyces peucetius, directly downstream of the genes encoding the beta-ketoacyl:acyl carrier protein synthase subunits, are two genes, dp...
