Streptomyces autolyticus CGMCC 0516 produces the anti-tumor benzoquinone ansamycins geldanamycin, autolytimycin, and reblastatin and the 16-membered macrodiolide elaiophylin. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of S. autolyticus CGMCC 0516, which consists of a 10,029,028bp linear chromosome and seven circular plasmids. Fifty-seven putative biosynthetic gene clusters for secondary metabolites were found. The geldanamycin, autolytimycin, and reblastatin biosynthetic gene clusters were located on the left arm (2.06-2.15Mb) of the chromosome, and the elaiophylin gene cluster was located on the right arm (9.45-9.53Mb). Twenty-one putative gene clusters with high or moderate similarity to important antibiotic biosynthetic gene clusters were found, including the antitumor agents echoside, bafilomycin, hygrocin, and toxoflavin; the antibacterial/antifungal agents nigericin, skyllamycin, kanamycin, naphthomycin, eco-02301, and bottromycin A2; the immunosuppressants meridamycin and brasilicardin A; the anti-inflammatory agent cyclooctatin; and the acute iron poisoning medication desferrioxamine B. The genome sequence reported here will enable us to study the biosynthetic mechanism of these important antibiotics and will facilitate the discovery of novel secondary metabolites with potential applications to human health.

ε-Caprolactam and δ-valerolactam are important commodity chemicals used in the manufacture of nylons, with millions of tons produced annually. Biological production of these highly valued chemicals has been limited due to a lack of enzymes that cyclize ω-amino fatty acid precursors to corresponding lactams under ambient conditions. In this study, we demonstrated production of these chemicals using ORF26, an acyl-CoA ligase involved in the biosynthesis of ECO-02301 in Streptomyces aizunensis. This enzyme has a broad substrate spectrum and can cyclize 4-aminobutyric acid into γ-butyrolactam, 5-aminovaleric acid into δ-valerolactam and 6-aminocaproic acid into ε-caprolactam. Recombinant E. coli expressing ORF26 produced valerolactam and caprolactam when 5-aminovaleric acid and 6-aminocaproic acid were added to the culture medium. Upon coexpressing ORF26 with a metabolic pathway that produced 5-aminovaleric acid from lysine, we were able to demonstrate production of δ-valerolactam from lysine.

A Three Enzyme Pathway for 2-Amino-3-hydroxycyclopent-2-enone Formation and Incorporation in Natural Product Biosynthesis

Q1 · CHEMISTRY

Author: Walsh, Christopher T. ; Kahne, Daniel ; Bolla, Megan L. ; Zhang, Wenjun

A number of natural products contain a 2-amino-3-hydroxycyclopent-2-enone five membered ring, termed C(5)N, which is condensed via an amide linkage to a variety of polyketide-derived polyenoic acid scaffolds. Bacterial genome mining indicates three tandem ORFs that may be involved in C(5)N formation and subsequent installation in amide linkages. We show that the protein products of three tandem ORFs (ORF33-35) from the ECO-02301 biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces aizunenesis NRRL-B-11277, when purified from Escherichia coli, demonstrate the requisite enzyme activities for C(5)N formation and amide ligation. First, succinyl-CoA and glycine are condensed to generate 5-aminolevulinate (ALA) by a dedicated PLP-dependent ALA synthase (ORF34). Then ALA is converted to ALA-CoA through an ALA-AMP intermediate by an acyl-CoA ligase (ORF35). ALA-CoA is unstable and has a half-life of approximately 10 min under incubation conditions for off-pathway cyclization to 2,5-piperidinedione. The ALA synthase can compete with the nonenzymatic decomposition route and act in a novel second transformation, cyclizing ALA-CoA to C(5)N. C(5)N is then a substrate for the third enzyme, an ATP-dependent amide synthetase (ORF33). Using octatrienoic acid as a mimic of the C(56) polyenoic acid scaffold of ECO-02301, formation of the octatrienyl-C(5)N product was observed. This three enzyme pathway is likely the general route to the C(5)N ring system in other natural products, including the antibiotic moenomycin.
