Abstract
Heterotrimeric G proteins are key mediators in the signaling of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) that are involved in a plethora of important physiological processes and thus major targets of pharmaceutical drugs. The cyclic depsipeptides YM-254890 and FR900359 are strong and selective inhibitors of the Gq subfamily of G proteins. FR900359 was first reported to be produced by unculturable plant symbiont, however, a culturable FR900359 producer was discovered recently by the standard strategy, screening of the producing strain from the environment. As another strategy, we introduce herein the different way to supply natural compounds of unculturable microorganism origin. We therefore embarked on constructing an artificial biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) for FR900359 with YM-254890 BGC as a template using "in vitro module editing" technology, first developed for the modification of type-I PKS BGCs, to edit YM-254890 BGC. The resulting artificial BGCs coding FR900359 were heterologously expressed in the Pseudomonas putida KT2440 host strain.

A Novel Strategy for Whole-Cell Biotransformation Enabling Simultaneous l-Phenyllactic Acid Production and Coenzyme Regeneration. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2023; 71:20772-20781.

Abstract
l-Phenyllactic acid (l-PLA) is a small molecular organic acid that exhibits a powerful capacity for inhibition against foodborne pathogens. In this work, we developed a new cost-effective and environmentally friendly process for the biosynthesis of l-PLA. This strategy designed a novel whole-cell biotransformation system employing two heterologous enzymes, namely, phenylalanine dehydrogenase (PheDH) and l-hydroxyisocaproate dehydrogenase (l-HicDH). The novelty of this strategy lies in the first-time utilization of these two enzymes, which not only enables cascade catalysis for the production of l-PLA but also facilitates the regeneration of the coenzymes (NAD+/NADH) using only two enzymes rather than introducing more heterologous enzymes to the system. Consequently, this strategy can effectively simplify the biosynthesis process of l-PLA and minimize production costs. The initial l-PLA yield using this process achieved 2.53 ± 0.07 g/L. Furthermore, through meticulous optimization of the parameters for inducible enzyme expression and l-PLA biosynthesis, the l-PLA yield was successfully increased to 4.68 ± 0.04 g/L with a yield rate of 64.54 ± 0.29%. Moreover, this novel strategy is versatile in the biosynthesis of other organic acids, which can be achieved by easily modulating the combinations of substrates and enzymes.

Abstract
YM-254890 and FR900359 are potent and selective inhibitors of the Gq/11-signaling pathway. As such, they have been attractive targets for both synthesis and biological studies. Yet in spite of this effort, a versatile synthetic approach to the molecules that allows for the rapid construction of a variety of non-natural and labelled analogs and an increase in the amount of those analogs available remains elusive. We report here a convergent building block approach to the molecules that can solve this challenge.
