Abstract
Covering: up to 2022Streptomyces are ubiquitous in terrestrial and marine environments, where they display a fascinating metabolic diversity. As a result, these bacteria are a prolific source of active natural products. One important class of these natural products is the nonribosomal lipopeptides, which have diverse biological activities and play important roles in the lifestyle of Streptomyces. The importance of this class is highlighted by the use of related antibiotics in the clinic, such as daptomycin (tradename Cubicin). By virtue of recent advances spanning chemistry and biology, significant progress has been made in biosynthetic studies on the lipopeptide antibiotics produced by Streptomyces. This review will serve as a comprehensive guide for researchers working in this multidisciplinary field, providing a summary of recent progress regarding the investigation of lipopeptides from Streptomyces. In particular, we highlight the structures, properties, biosynthetic mechanisms, chemical and chemoenzymatic synthesis, and biological functions of lipopeptides. In addition, the application of genome mining techniques to Streptomyces that have led to the discovery of many novel lipopeptides is discussed, further demonstrating the potential of lipopeptides from Streptomyces for future development in modern medicine.

Abstract
Background Caprazamycins are liponucleoside antibiotics showing bioactivity against Gram-positive bacteria including clinically relevant Mycobacterium tuberculosis by targeting the bacterial MraY-translocase. Their chemical structure contains a unique 3-methylglutaryl moiety which they only share with the closely related liposidomycins. Although the biosynthesis of caprazamycin is understood to some extent, the origin of 3-methylglutaryl-CoA for caprazamycin biosynthesis remains elusive. Results In this work, we demonstrate two pathways of the heterologous producer Streptomyces coelicolor M1154 capable of supplying 3-methylglutaryl-CoA: One is encoded by the caprazamycin gene cluster itself including the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase Cpz5. The second pathway is part of primary metabolism of the host cell and encodes for the leucine/isovalerate utilization pathway (Liu-pathway). We could identify the liu cluster in S. coelicolor M1154 and gene deletions showed that the intermediate 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA is used for 3-methylglutaryl-CoA biosynthesis. This is the first report of this intermediate being hijacked for secondary metabolite biosynthesis. Furthermore, Cpz20 and Cpz25 from the caprazamycin gene cluster were found to be part of a common route after both individual pathways are merged together. Conclusions The unique 3-methylglutaryl moiety in caprazamycin originates both from the caprazamycin gene cluster and the leucine/isovalerate utilization pathway of the heterologous host. Our study enhanced the knowledge on the caprazamycin biosynthesis and points out the importance of primary metabolism of the host cell for biosynthesis of natural products.

Abstract
RATIONALE A rapid and precise analytical method for the investigation of natural products is required for pathway monitoring of the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Phenalinolactones, used in antibiotic research, are produced by Streptomyces sp. Tü6071. For the analysis of those compounds, prior to mass spectrometric analysis, an efficient separation technique is required. METHODS For the identification of phenalinolactones from liquid cultures of Streptomyces sp. Tü6071, a new method comprising the combination of solid-phase extraction (SPE) prior to liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) was established. MS/MS product ion scans were applied for phenalinolactone detection and structure elucidation, performed in negative mode and optimized for sensitivity and specificity. For the discovery of new intermediates, a MS/MS precursor ion scan was applied. RESULTS Analysis of the extracts revealed that the Oasis® MAX cartridge, containing a quaternary amine functionality, is the most efficient SPE material for purification of phenalinolactones, since it allowed sufficient enrichment and detection of intermediates from the biosynthetic pathway by LC/ESI-MS/MS. Using the precursor ion scan technique, two new secondary metabolites, PL IM1 with m/z 672.6 and PL IM2 with m/z 433.3, have been detected. The structures of the new intermediates are postulated and arranged into the biosynthetic pathway of phenalinolactones. CONCLUSIONS A precise analytical method was established for the identification of phenalinolactones by combining purification from Streptomyces using SPE prior to LC/ESI-MS/MS. By optimising LC/ESI-MS/MS settings, this method has been successfully applied for pathway monitoring of secondary metabolites. Application of a precursor ion scan allowed for the identification of unknown intermediates in biosynthetic pathways.
