The ?-ketoglutarate/Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenase VldW is responsible for the formation of validamycin B.


ABSTRACT: From A to B: Through detailed biochemical investigations, we discovered that VldW, an ?-ketoglutarate/Fe(II)-dependent dioxygenase, regioselectively hydroxylates validamycin A to validamycin B. The results provide insights into the biosynthesis of hydroxylated validamycins and could be used to control the metabolic outcomes of the validamycin pathway.
