Rerouting the Pathway for the Biosynthesis of the Side Ring System of Nosiheptide: The Roles of NosI, NosJ, and NosK.

ABSTRACT: Nosiheptide (NOS) is a highly modified thiopeptide antibiotic that displays formidable in vitro activity against a variety of Gram-positive bacteria. In addition to a central hydroxypyridine ring, NOS contains several other modifications, including multiple thiazole rings, dehydro-amino acids, and a 3,4-dimethylindolic acid (DMIA) moiety. The DMIA moiety is required for NOS efficacy and is synthesized from l-tryptophan in a series of reactions that have not been fully elucidated. Herein, we describe the role of NosJ, the product of an unannotated gene in the biosynthetic operon for NOS, as an acyl carrier protein that delivers 3-methylindolic acid (MIA) to NosK. We also reassign the role of NosI as the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the ATP-dependent activation of MIA and MIA's attachment to the phosphopantetheine moiety of NosJ. Lastly, NosK catalyzes the transfer of the MIA group from NosJ-MIA to a conserved serine residue (Ser102) on NosK. The X-ray crystal structure of NosK, solved to 2.3 Å resolution, reveals that the protein is an ?/?-fold hydrolase. Ser102 interacts with Glu210 and His234 to form a catalytic triad located at the bottom of an open cleft that is large enough to accommodate the thiopeptide framework.

Project description:Steroid-based drugs are now mainly produced by the microbial transformation of phytosterol, and a two-step bioprocess is adopted to reach high space-time yields, but byproducts are frequently observed during the bioprocessing. In this study, the catabolic switch between the C19- and C22-steroidal subpathways was investigated in resting cells of Mycobacterium neoaurum NRRL B-3805, and a dose-dependent transcriptional response toward the induction of phytosterol with increased concentrations was found in the putative node enzymes including ChoM2, KstD1, OpccR, Sal, and Hsd4A. Aldolase Sal presented a dominant role in the C22 steroidal side-chain cleavage, and the byproduct was eliminated after sequential deletion of opccR and sal. Meanwhile, the molar yield of androst-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD) was increased from 59.4 to 71.3%. With the regard of insufficient activity of rate-limiting enzymes may also cause byproduct accumulation, a chromosomal integration platform for target gene overexpression was established supported by a strong promoter L2 combined with site-specific recombination in the engineered cell. Rate-limiting steps of ADD bioconversion were further characterized and overcome. Overexpression of the kstD1 gene further strengthened the bioconversion from AD to ADD. After subsequential optimization of the bioconversion system, the directed biotransformation route was developed and allowed up to 82.0% molar yield with a space-time yield of 4.22 g·L-1·day-1. The catabolic diversion elements and the genetic overexpression tools as confirmed and developed in present study offer new ideas of M. neoaurum cell factory development for directed biotransformation for C19- and C22-steroidal drug intermediates from phytosterol. KEY POINTS: • Resting cells exhibited a catabolic switch between the C19- and C22-steroidal subpathways. • The C22-steroidal byproduct was eliminated after sequential deletion of opccR and sal. • Rate-limiting steps were overcome by promoter engineering and chromosomal integration.
