Abstract
Reactive amino acid side chains play important roles in the binding of peptides to specific targets. In addition, their reactivity enables selective peptide conjugation and functionalization for pharmaceutical purposes. Diverse reactive amino acids are incorporated into nonribosomal peptides, which serve as a source for drug candidates. Notable examples include (poly)unsaturated (enamine, alkyne, and furyl) and halogenated residues, strained carbacycles (cyclopropyl and cyclopropanol), small heterocycles (oxirane and aziridine), and reactive N-N functionalities (hydrazones, diazo compounds, and diazeniumdiolates). Their biosynthesis requires diverse biocatalysts for sophisticated reaction mechanisms. Several avenues have been identified for their incorporation into peptides, the recruitment by adenylation domains or ligases, on-line modifications, and enzymatic tailoring reactions. Combined with protein engineering approaches, this knowledge provides new opportunities in synthetic biology and bioorthogonal chemistry.

Identification of the Cirratiomycin Biosynthesis Gene Cluster in Streptomyces Cirratus: Elucidation of the Biosynthetic Pathways for 2,3-Diaminobutyric Acid and Hydroxymethylserine. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202400271.

Abstract
Cirratiomycin, a heptapeptide with antibacterial activity, was isolated and characterized in 1981; however, its biosynthetic pathway has not been elucidated. It contains several interesting nonproteinogenic amino acids, such as (2S,3S)-2,3-diaminobutyric acid ((2S,3S)-DABA) and α-(hydroxymethyl)serine, as building blocks. Here, we report the identification of a cirratiomycin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces cirratus. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that several Streptomyces viridifaciens and Kitasatospora aureofaciens strains also have this cluster. One S. viridifaciens strain was confirmed to produce cirratiomycin. The biosynthetic gene cluster was shown to be responsible for cirratiomycin biosynthesis in S. cirratus in a gene inactivation experiment using CRISPR-cBEST. Interestingly, this cluster encodes a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) composed of 12 proteins, including those with an unusual domain organization: a stand-alone adenylation domain, two stand-alone condensation domains, two type II thioesterases, and two NRPS modules that have no adenylation domain. Using heterologous expression and in vitro analysis of recombinant enzymes, we revealed the biosynthetic pathway of (2S,3S)-DABA: (2S,3S)-DABA is synthesized from l-threonine by four enzymes, CirR, CirS, CirQ, and CirB. In addition, CirH, a glycine/serine hydroxymethyltransferase homolog, was shown to synthesize α-(hydroxymethyl)serine from d-serine in vitro. These findings broaden our knowledge of nonproteinogenic amino acid biosynthesis.

Abstract
Nitrogen-Nitrogen (N-N) bond-containing functional groups in natural products and synthetic drugs play significant roles in exerting biological activities. The mechanisms of N-N bond formation in natural organic molecules have garnered increasing attention over the decades. Recent advances have illuminated various enzymatic and nonenzymatic strategies, and our understanding of natural N-N bond construction is rapidly expanding. A group of didomain proteins with zinc-binding cupin/methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MetRS)-like domains, also known as hydrazine synthetases, generates amino acid-based hydrazines, which serve as key biosynthetic precursors of diverse N-N bond-containing functionalities such as hydrazone, diazo, triazene, pyrazole, and pyridazinone groups. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on hydrazine synthetase mechanisms and the various pathways employing this unique bond-forming machinery.

Abstract
Hydroxytryptophan serves as a chemical precursor to a variety of bioactive specialized metabolites, including the human neurotransmitter serotonin and the hormone melatonin. Although the human and animal routes to hydroxytryptophan have been known for decades, how bacteria catalyze tryptophan indole hydroxylation remains a mystery. Here we report a class of tryptophan hydroxylases that are involved in various bacterial metabolic pathways. These enzymes utilize a histidine-ligated heme cofactor and molecular oxygen or hydrogen peroxide to catalyze regioselective hydroxylation on the tryptophan indole moiety, which is mechanistically distinct from their animal counterparts from the nonheme iron enzyme family. Through genome mining, we also identify members that can hydroxylate the tryptophan indole ring at alternative positions. Our results not only reveal a conserved way to synthesize hydroxytryptophans in bacteria but also provide a valuable enzyme toolbox for biocatalysis. As proof of concept, we assemble a highly efficient pathway for melatonin in a bacterial host.

Abstract
A targeted and logical discovery method was devised for natural products containing piperazic acid (Piz), which is biosynthesized from ornithine by l-ornithine N-hydroxylase (KtzI) and N-N bond formation enzyme (KtzT). Genomic signature-based screening of a bacterial DNA library (2020 strains) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers targeting ktzT identified 62 strains (3.1%). The PCR amplicons of KtzT-encoding genes were phylogenetically analyzed to classify the 23 clades into two monophyletic groups, I and II. Cultivating hit strains in media supplemented with 15NH4Cl and applying 1H-15N heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) along with 1H-15N heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) and 1H-15N HSQC-total correlation spectroscopy (HSQC-TOCSY) NMR experiments detected the spectroscopic signatures of Piz and modified Piz. Chemical investigation of the hit strains prioritized by genomic and spectroscopic signatures led to the identification of a new azinothricin congener, polyoxyperuin B seco acid (1), previously reported chloptosin (2) in group I, depsidomycin D (3) incorporating two dehydropiperazic acids (Dpz), and lenziamides A and B (4 and 5), structurally novel 31-membered cyclic decapeptides in group II. By consolidating the phylogenetic and chemical analyses, clade-structure relationships were elucidated for 19 of the 23 clades. Lenziamide A (4) inhibited STAT3 activation and induced G2/M cell cycle arrest, apoptotic cell death, and tumor growth suppression in human colorectal cancer cells. Moreover, lenziamide A (4) resensitized 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) activity in both in vitro cell cultures and the in vivo 5-FU-resistant tumor xenograft mouse model. This work demonstrates that the genomic and spectroscopic signature-based searches provide an efficient and general strategy for new bioactive natural products containing specific structural motifs.

P450-mediated dehydrotyrosine formation during WS9326 biosynthesis proceeds via dehydrogenation of a specific acylated dipeptide substrate. Acta Pharm Sin B 2023; 13:3561-3574. [PMID: 37655329 PMCID: PMC10465960 DOI: 10.1016/j.apsb.2023.03.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
WS9326A is a peptide antibiotic containing a highly unusual N-methyl-E-2-3-dehydrotyrosine (NMet-Dht) residue that is incorporated during peptide assembly on a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS). The cytochrome P450 encoded by sas16 (P450Sas) has been shown to be essential for the formation of the alkene moiety in NMet-Dht, but the timing and mechanism of the P450Sas-mediated α,β-dehydrogenation of Dht remained unclear. Here, we show that the substrate of P450Sas is the NRPS-associated peptidyl carrier protein (PCP)-bound dipeptide intermediate (Z)-2-pent-1'-enyl-cinnamoyl-Thr-N-Me-Tyr. We demonstrate that P450Sas-mediated incorporation of the double bond follows N-methylation of the Tyr by the N-methyl transferase domain found within the NRPS, and further that P450Sas appears to be specific for substrates containing the (Z)-2-pent-1'-enyl-cinnamoyl group. A crystal structure of P450Sas reveals differences between P450Sas and other P450s involved in the modification of NRPS-associated substrates, including the substitution of the canonical active site alcohol residue with a phenylalanine (F250), which in turn is critical to P450Sas activity and WS9326A biosynthesis. Together, our results suggest that P450Sas catalyses the direct dehydrogenation of the NRPS-bound dipeptide substrate, thus expanding the repertoire of P450 enzymes that can be used to produce biologically active peptides.
