Zhang L, Jiang P, Jin H, Zhang C. Achieving Regioselectivity for Remote C-H Activation by Substructure Conformations: an Approach of Paralogous Cytochrome P450 Enzymes. Chemistry 2024:e202402635. [PMID: 39194284 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202402635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2024] [Revised: 08/28/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/29/2024]
Abstract
For advanced synthetic intermediates or natural products with multiple unactivated and energetically similar C(sp3)-H bonds, controlling regioselectivity for the C-H activation is particularly challenging. The use of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) is a promising solution to the 'regioelectivity' challenge in remote C-H activation. Notably, CYPs and organic catalysts share a fundamental principle: they strive to control the distance and geometry between the metal reaction center and the target C-H site. Most structural analyses of the regioselectivity of CYPs are limited to the active pocket, particularly when explaining why regioselectivity could be altered by enzyme engineering through mutagenesis. However, the substructures responsible for forming the active pocket in CYPs are well known to display complex dynamic changes and substrate-induced plasticity. In this context, we highlight a comparative study of the recently reported paralogous CYPs, IkaD and CftA, which achieve different regioselectivity towards the same substrate ikarugamycin by distinct substructure conformations. We propose that substructural conformation-controlled regioselectivity might also be present in CYPs of other natural product biosynthesis pathways, which should be considered when engineering CYPs for regioselective modifications.

Critical analysis of polycyclic tetramate macrolactam biosynthetic gene cluster phylogeny and functional diversity. Appl Environ Microbiol 2024; 90:e0060024. [PMID: 38771054 PMCID: PMC11218653 DOI: 10.1128/aem.00600-24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs) are bioactive natural products commonly associated with certain actinobacterial and proteobacterial lineages. These molecules have been the subject of numerous structure-activity investigations since the 1970s. New members continue to be pursued in wild and engineered bacterial strains, and advances in PTM biosynthesis suggest their outwardly simplistic biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) belie unexpected product complexity. To address the origins of this complexity and understand its influence on PTM discovery, we engaged in a combination of bioinformatics to systematically classify PTM BGCs and PTM-targeted metabolomics to compare the products of select BGC types. By comparing groups of producers and BGC mutants, we exposed knowledge gaps that complicate bioinformatics-driven product predictions. In sum, we provide new insights into the evolution of PTM BGCs while systematically accounting for the PTMs discovered thus far. The combined computational and metabologenomic findings presented here should prove useful for guiding future discovery.IMPORTANCEPolycyclic tetramate macrolactam (PTM) pathways are frequently found within the genomes of biotechnologically important bacteria, including Streptomyces and Lysobacter spp. Their molecular products are typically bioactive, having substantial agricultural and therapeutic interest. Leveraging bacterial genomics for the discovery of new related molecules is thus desirable, but drawing accurate structural predictions from bioinformatics alone remains challenging. This difficulty stems from a combination of previously underappreciated biosynthetic complexity and remaining knowledge gaps, compounded by a stream of yet-uncharacterized PTM biosynthetic loci gleaned from recently sequenced bacterial genomes. We engaged in the following study to create a useful framework for cataloging historic PTM clusters, identifying new cluster variations, and tracing evolutionary paths for these molecules. Our data suggest new PTM chemistry remains discoverable in nature. However, our metabolomic and mutational analyses emphasize the practical limitations of genomics-based discovery by exposing hidden complexity.

Abstract
This brief review aims to draw attention to the biotechnological potential of actinomycetes. Their main uses as sources of antibiotics and in agriculture would be enough not to neglect them; however, as we will see, their biotechnological application is much broader. Far from intending to exhaust this issue, we present a short survey of the research involving actinomycetes and their applications published in the last 23 years. We highlight a perspective for the discovery of new active ingredients or new applications for the known metabolites of these microorganisms that, for approximately 80 years, since the discovery of streptomycin, have been the main source of antibiotics. Based on the collected data, we organize the text to show how the cosmopolitanism of actinomycetes and the evolutionary biotic and abiotic ecological relationships of actinomycetes translate into the expression of metabolites in the environment and the richness of biosynthetic gene clusters, many of which remain silenced in traditional laboratory cultures. We also present the main strategies used in the twenty-first century to promote the expression of these silenced genes and obtain new secondary metabolites from known or new strains. Many of these metabolites have biological activities relevant to medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology industries, including candidates for new drugs or drug models against infectious and non-infectious diseases. Below, we present significant examples of the antimicrobial spectrum of actinomycetes, which is the most commonly investigated and best known, as well as their non-antimicrobial spectrum, which is becoming better known and increasingly explored.

Abstract
Cancer cells reprogram their metabolism to become "glycolysis-dominant," which enables them to meet their energy and macromolecule needs and enhancing their rate of survival. This glycolytic-dominancy is known as the "Warburg effect", a significant factor in the growth and invasion of malignant tumors. Many studies confirmed that members of the GLUT family, specifically HK-II from the HK family play a pivotal role in the Warburg effect, and are closely associated with glucose transportation followed by glucose metabolism in cancer cells. Overexpression of GLUTs and HK-II correlates with aggressive tumor behaviour and tumor microenvironment making them attractive therapeutic targets. Several studies have proven that the regulation of GLUTs and HK-II expression improves the treatment outcome for various tumors. Therefore, small molecule inhibitors targeting GLUT and HK-II show promise in sensitizing cancer cells to treatment, either alone or in combination with existing therapies including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and photodynamic therapy. Despite existing therapies, viable methods to target the glycolysis of cancer cells are currently lacking to increase the effectiveness of cancer treatment. This review explores the current understanding of GLUT and HK-II in cancer metabolism, recent inhibitor developments, and strategies for future drug development, offering insights into improving cancer treatment efficacy.

Abstract
During our screening for anti-mycobacterial agents against Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), two new polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs), named hydroxycapsimycin (1) and brokamycin (2), were isolated along with the known PTM, ikarugamycin (3), from the culture broth of marine-derived Streptomyces sp. KKMA-0239. The relative structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by spectroscopic data analyses, including 1D and 2D NMR. Furthermore, the absolute configuration of 1 was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 2 and 3 exhibited moderate antimycobacterial activities against MAC, including clinically isolated drug-resistant M. avium.

Abstract
Regio- and chemoselective C-H activation at multi-positions of a single molecule is fascinating but chemically challenging. The homologous cytochrome P450 enzymes IkaD and CftA catalyze multiple C-H oxidations on the same polycyclic tetramate macrolactam (PoTeM) ikarugamycin, with distinct regio- and chemoselectivity. Herein we provide mechanistic understanding of their functional differences by solving crystal structures of IkaD and CftA in complex with ikarugamycin and unnatural substrates. Distinct conformations of the F/G region in IkaD and CftA are found to differentiate the orientation of PoTeM substrates, by causing different binding patterns with polar moieties to determine site selection, oxidation order, and chemoselectivity. Fine-tuning the polar subpocket altered the regioselectivity of IkaD, indicating that substrate re-orientation by mutating residues distal to the oxidation site could serve as an important method in future engineering of P450 enzymes.

Abstract
Streptomyces species are ubiquitous, Gram-positive, spore-forming bacteria with the ability to produce various clinically relevant compounds. The strain 4503 T was isolated from mangrove sediments, showing morphological and chemical properties which were consistent with those of members of the genus Streptomyces. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate was primarily identified as members of the genus Streptomyces, sharing more than 99% sequence identity to Streptomyces yatensis DSM 41771 T, S. antimycoticus NBRC 12839 T, and S. melanosporofaciens NBRC 13061 T. Average nucleotide identities (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain 4503 T and its close relatives were all below 95-96% and 75% of the novel species threshold, respectively. Results from phylogenetic, genomic, phenotypic, and chemotaxonomic characteristics analyses confirmed that the isolate represented a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces niphimycinicus sp. nov. 4503 T (= MCCC 1K04557T = JCM 34996 T) is proposed. The bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract of strain 4503 T resulted in the isolation of a known compound niphimycin C, which showed cytotoxic activity against nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell lines TW03 and 5-8F with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of 12.24 µg/mL and 9.44 µg/mL, respectively. Further experiments revealed that niphimycin C not only exhibited the capacity of anti-proliferation, anti-metastasis, induction of cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis, but was also able to increase the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and regulate several signaling pathways in NPC cells. KEY POINTS: • Strain 4503 T was classified as a novel species of Streptomyces. • Niphimycin C correlates with the cytotoxic effect of strain 4503 T against NPC cells. • Niphimycin C induces apoptosis, autophagic flux disruption and cell cycle arrest.

Abstract
The present volume is the third in a trilogy that documents naturally occurring organohalogen compounds, bringing the total number-from fewer than 25 in 1968-to approximately 8000 compounds to date. Nearly all of these natural products contain chlorine or bromine, with a few containing iodine and, fewer still, fluorine. Produced by ubiquitous marine (algae, sponges, corals, bryozoa, nudibranchs, fungi, bacteria) and terrestrial organisms (plants, fungi, bacteria, insects, higher animals) and universal abiotic processes (volcanos, forest fires, geothermal events), organohalogens pervade the global ecosystem. Newly identified extraterrestrial sources are also documented. In addition to chemical structures, biological activity, biohalogenation, biodegradation, natural function, and future outlook are presented.

Abstract
The structural diversity of polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs) are mainly generated by the cyclases and cytochrome P450s (CYPs). The PoTeM cluster sah in Saccharopolyspora hirsuta harboring two CYP genes was combinatorially reassembled and heterologously expressed in Streptomyces. As a result, six new cytotoxic PoTeMs, sahamides A-F (1-6), were discovered, and 1-3 are the first examples of oxidized one-ring PoTeMs. Remarkably, SahE represents the first CYP performing oxidative modification on the ornithine moiety of PoTeMs.

Abstract
The mangrove forests are a complex ecosystem, and the microbial communities in mangrove sediments play a critical role in the biogeochemical cycles of mangrove ecosystems. Mangrove sediments-derived microbes (MSM), as a rich reservoir of natural product diversity, could be utilized in the exploration of new antibiotics or drugs. To understand the structural diversity and bioactivities of the metabolites of MSM, this review for the first time provides a comprehensive overview of 519 natural products isolated from MSM with their bioactivities, up to 2021. Most of the structural types of these compounds are alkaloids, lactones, xanthones, quinones, terpenoids, and steroids. Among them, 210 compounds are obtained from bacteria, most of which are from Streptomyces, while 309 compounds are from fungus, especially genus Aspergillus and Penicillium. The pharmacological mechanisms of some representative lead compounds are well studied, revealing that they have important medicinal potentials, such as piericidins with anti-renal cell cancer effects, azalomycins with anti-MRSA activities, and ophiobolins as antineoplastic agents. The biosynthetic pathways of representative natural products from MSM have also been summarized, especially ikarugamycin, piericidins, divergolides, and azalomycins. In addition, the total synthetic strategies of representative secondary metabolites from MSM are also reviewed, such as piericidin A and borrelidin. This review provides an important reference for the research status of natural products isolated from MSM and the lead compounds worthy of further development, and reveals that MSM have important medicinal values and are worthy of further development.

Abstract
Polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs) are a class of structurally complex hybrid polyketide-nonribosomal peptide (PK-NRP) natural products produced by diverse bacteria. Several PTMs display pharmaceutically interesting bioactivities, and the early stages of PTM biosynthesis involving polyketide synthase (PKS) and nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) enzymology are well studied. However, the timing and mechanisms of post PKS-NRPS oxidations by P450 monooxygenases encoded in PTM biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) remain poorly characterized. Here we demonstrate that CftA, encoded in clifednamide-type PTM BGCs, is a multifunctional P450 monooxygenase capable of converting the C29-C30 ethyl side chain of ikarugamycin to either a C29-C30 methyl ketone or a C29-C30 hydroxymethyl ketone through C-H bond activation, resulting in the formation of clifednamide A or clifednamide C, respectively. We also report the complete structure of clifednamide C solved via multidimensional NMR (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY, and TOCSY) using material purified from an engineered Streptomyces strain optimized for production. Finally, the in vitro reconstitution of recombinant CftA catalytic activity revealed the oxidation cascade for sequential conversion of ikarugamycin to clifednamide A and clifednamide C. Our findings confirm prior genetics-based predictions on the origins of clifednamide complexity via P450s encoded in PTM BGCs and place CftA into a growing group of multifunctional P450s that tailor PTM natural products through late-stage regioselective C-H bond activation.

Abstract
Polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs) are a family of natural products containing a tetramic acid moiety and a polycyclic system. Due to the valuable biological activities of different PoTeMs and the genetic simplicity of their biosynthetic genes, it is highly desirable to manipulate the biosynthesis of PoTeMs by swapping modification genes between different pathways. Herein, by combining the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes from different PoTeM pathways with the combamides' biosynthetic genes, the new combamides G (3), I (5), and J (6) along with the known combamides B (1), D (2), and H (4) were identified from the recombinant strains. Combamides G (3), H (4), and J (6) displayed cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines. Furthermore, our results demonstrated for the first time the substrate specificity of the PoTeM-related CYPs in vivo, which will facilitate the engineered biosynthesis of other PoTeMs in the future.

An Antifungal Polycyclic Tetramate Macrolactam, Heat-Stable Antifungal Factor (HSAF), Is a Novel Oxidative Stress Modulator in Lysobacter enzymogenes. Appl Environ Microbiol 2021; 87:AEM.03105-20.

Abstract
Polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs) are a fast-growing family of antibiotic natural products found in phylogenetically diverse microorganisms. Surprisingly, none of the PoTeMs have been investigated for potential physiological functions in their producers. Here, we used heat-stable antifungal factor (HSAF), an antifungal PoTeM from Lysobacter enzymogenes, as a model to show that PoTeMs form complexes with iron ions, with an association constant (Ka ) of 2.71 × 106 M-1 The in vivo and in vitro data showed formation of 2:1 and 3:1 complexes between HSAF and iron ions, which were confirmed by molecular mechanical and quantum mechanical calculations. HSAF protected DNA from degradation in high concentrations of iron and H2O2 or under UV radiation. HSAF mutants of L. enzymogenes barely survived under oxidative stress and exhibited markedly increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Exogenous addition of HSAF into the mutants significantly prevented ROS production and restored normal growth in the mutants under the oxidative stress. The results reveal that the function of HSAF is to protect the producer microorganism from oxidative damage rather than as an iron-acquisition siderophore. The characteristic structure of PoTeMs, a 2,4-pyrrolidinedione-embedded macrolactam, may represent a new iron-chelating scaffold of microbial metabolites. The study demonstrated a previously unrecognized strategy for microorganisms to modulate oxidative damage to the cells.IMPORTANCE PoTeMs are a family of structurally distinct metabolites that have been found in a large number of bacteria. Although PoTeMs exhibit diverse therapeutic properties, the physiological function of PoTeMs in the producer microorganisms had not been investigated. HSAF from Lysobacter enzymogenes is an antifungal PoTeM that has been subjected to extensive studies for mechanisms of biosynthesis, regulation, and antifungal activity. Using HSAF as a model system, we here showed that the characteristic structure of PoTeMs, a 2,4-pyrrolidinedione-embedded macrolactam, may represent a new iron-chelating scaffold of microbial metabolites. In L. enzymogenes, HSAF functions as a small-molecule modulator for oxidative damage caused by iron, H2O2, and UV light. Together, the study demonstrated a previously unrecognized strategy for microorganisms to modulate oxidative damage to the cells. HSAF represents the first member of the fast-growing PoTeM family of microbial metabolites whose potential biological function has been studied.

Abstract
The One Strain Many Compounds approach (OSMAC) is a powerful and comprehensive method that enables the chemo-diversity evaluation of microorganisms. This is achieved by variations of physicochemical cultivation parameters and by providing biotic and abiotic triggers to mimic microorganisms' natural environment in the lab. This approach can reactivate the silent biosynthetic routes of specific metabolites typically not biosynthesized under standard laboratory conditions. In the present study, we combined the OSMAC approach with static headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS), high-performance liquid chromatography-high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRMSn), and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-HRMSI) to evaluate the chemoecological significance of an apple root-associated endophytic Streptomyces pulveraceus strain ES16. We employed the OSMAC approach by cultivating the endophyte in six different media conditions and performed temporal studies over 14 days. Analysis of the volatilome revealed that only under stressful conditions associated with sporulation, endophytic S. pulveraceus ES16 produces geosmin, a volatile semiochemical known to attract the soil arthropods Collembola (springtails) specifically. Subsequently, targeted metabolic profiling revealed polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs) production by the endophyte under stress, which are bioactive against various pathogens. Additionally, the endophyte produced the iron-chelating siderophore, mirubactin, under the same conditions. The structures of the compounds were evaluated using HRMSn and by comparison with literature data. Finally, MALDI-HRMSI revealed the produced compounds' spatial-temporal distribution over 14 days. The compounds were profusely secreted into the medium after production. Our results indicate that endophytic S. pulveraceus ES16 can release the signal molecule geosmin, chemical defense compounds such as the PTMs, as well as the siderophore mirubactin into the host plant apoplast or the soil for ecologically meaningful purposes, which are discussed.

Abstract
Worldwide cancer incidence and mortality have always been a concern to the community. The cancer mortality rate has generally declined over the years; however, there is still an increased mortality rate in poorer countries that receives considerable attention from healthcare professionals. This suggested the importance of the prompt detection, effective treatment, and prevention strategies. The genus Streptomyces has been documented as a prolific producer of biologically active secondary metabolites. Streptomycetes from mangrove environments attract researchers' attention due to their ability to synthesize diverse, interesting bioactive metabolites. The present review highlights research on mangrove-derived streptomycetes and the production of anticancer-related compounds from these microorganisms. Research studies conducted between 2008 and 2019, specifically mentioning the isolation of streptomycetes from mangrove areas and described the successful purification of compound(s) or generation of crude extracts with cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines, were compiled in this review. It is anticipated that there will be an increase in prospects for mangrove-derived streptomycetes as one of the natural resources for the isolation of chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs) are a group of hybrid PK-NRP natural products having a variable set of carbocyclic rings, a conserved assembly pathway, and diverse bioactivities. We report here the identification of seven new PoTeMs, clifednamides D-J (3-9), along with the known clifednamides A (1) and B (2) through rational pathway refactoring and heterologous expression. Remarkably, clifednamides D (3), G (6), and H (7) feature an unprecedented 27,28-seco skeleton. The cytotoxic activities of compounds 1-9 indicated that the hydroxy group of C-25, the methyl group of C-30, the inner five-membered ring, and the intact macrocycle are all critical for the activities. Meanwhile, the cytochrome P450 enzyme CftS023A and the hydroxylase CftS023E involved in oxidative tailoring of clifednamides were found to decorate the fused 5-6 bicyclic intermediates. Accordingly, the biosynthetic pathway for clifednamides was proposed.

Abstract
Tetramic acid (pyrrolidine-2,4-dione) compounds, isolated from a variety of marine and terrestrial organisms, have attracted considerable attention for their diverse, challenging structural complexity and promising bioactivities. In the past decade, marine-derived microorganisms have become great repositories of novel tetramic acids. Here, we discuss the biological activities of 277 tetramic acids of eight classifications (simple 3-acyl tetramic acids, 3-oligoenoyltetramic acids, 3-decalinoyltetramic acid, 3-spirotetramic acids, macrocyclic tetramic acids, N-acylated tetramic acids, α-cyclopiazonic acid-type tetramic acids, and other tetramic acids) from marine-derived microbes, including fungi, actinobacteria, bacteria, and cyanobacteria, as reported in 195 research studies up to 2019.

Abstract
The production of secondary metabolites, while important for bioengineering purposes, presents a paradox in itself. Though widely existing in plants and bacteria, they have no definite physiological roles. Yet in both native habitats and laboratories, their production appears robust and follows apparent metabolic switches. We show in this work that the enzyme-catalysed process may improve the metabolic stability of the cells. The latter can be responsible for the overall metabolic behaviours such as dynamic metabolic landscape, metabolic switches and robustness, which can in turn affect the genetic formation of the organism in question. Mangrove-derived Streptomyces xiamenensis 318, with a relatively compact genome for secondary metabolism, is used as a model organism in our investigation. Integrated studies via kinetic metabolic modelling, transcriptase measurements and metabolic profiling were performed on this strain. Our results demonstrate that the secondary metabolites increase the metabolic fitness of the organism via stabilizing the underlying metabolic network. And the fluxes directing to NADH, NADPH, acetyl-CoA and glutamate provide the key switches for the overall and secondary metabolism. The information may be helpful for improving the xiamenmycin production on the strain.

A Novel AdpA Homologue Negatively Regulates Morphological Differentiation in Streptomyces xiamenensis 318. Appl Environ Microbiol 2019; 85:AEM.03107-18.

Abstract
The pleiotropic transcriptional regulator AdpA positively controls morphological differentiation and regulates secondary metabolism in most Streptomyces species. Streptomyces xiamenensis 318 has a linear chromosome 5.96 Mb in size. How AdpA affects secondary metabolism and morphological differentiation in such a naturally minimized genomic background is unknown. Here, we demonstrated that AdpA Sx , an AdpA orthologue in S. xiamenensis, negatively regulates cell growth and sporulation and bidirectionally regulates the biosynthesis of xiamenmycin and polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PTMs) in S. xiamenensis 318. Overexpression of the adpASx gene in S. xiamenensis 318 had negative effects on morphological differentiation and resulted in reduced transcription of putative ssgA, ftsZ, ftsH, amfC, whiB, wblA1, wblA2, wblE, and a gene encoding sporulation-associated protein (sxim_29740), whereas the transcription of putative bldD and bldA genes was upregulated. Overexpression of adpASx led to significantly enhanced production of xiamenmycin but had detrimental effects on the production of PTMs. As expected, the transcriptional level of the xim gene cluster was upregulated, whereas the PTM gene cluster was downregulated. Moreover, AdpA Sx negatively regulated the transcription of its own gene. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays revealed that AdpA Sx can bind the promoter regions of structural genes of both the xim and PTM gene clusters as well as to the promoter regions of genes potentially involved in the cell growth and differentiation of S. xiamenensis 318. We report that an AdpA homologue has negative effects on morphological differentiation in S. xiamenensis 318, a finding confirmed when AdpA Sx was introduced into the heterologous host Streptomyces lividans TK24.IMPORTANCE AdpA is a key regulator of secondary metabolism and morphological differentiation in Streptomyces species. However, AdpA had not been reported to negatively regulate morphological differentiation. Here, we characterized the regulatory role of AdpA Sx in Streptomyces xiamenensis 318, which has a naturally streamlined genome. In this strain, AdpA Sx negatively regulated cell growth and morphological differentiation by directly controlling genes associated with these functions. AdpA Sx also bidirectionally controlled the biosynthesis of xiamenmycin and PTMs by directly regulating their gene clusters rather than through other regulators. Our findings provide additional evidence for the versatility of AdpA in regulating morphological differentiation and secondary metabolism in Streptomyces.

Abstract
The biocontrol agent Lysobacter enzymogenes produces polycyclic tetramate macrolactams (PoTeMs), including the antifungal HSAF. To elucidate the biosynthesis of the cyclic systems, we identified eleven HSAF precursors/analogues with zero, one, two, or three rings through heterologous expression of the HSAF gene cluster. A series of combinatorial gene expression and deletion experiments showed that OX3 is the "gatekeeper" responsible for the formation of the first 5-membered ring from lysobacterene A, OX1 and OX2 are responsible for formation of the second ring but with different selectivity, and OX4 is responsible for formation of the 6-membered ring. In vitro experiments showed that OX4 is an NADPH-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reductive cyclization of 3-dehydroxy alteramide C to form 3-dehydroxy HSAF. Thus, the multiplicity of OX genes is the basis for the structural diversity of the HSAF family, which is the only characterized PoTeM cluster that involves four redox enzymes in the formation of the cyclic system.

Abstract
Polycyclic tetramate macrolactam (PTM) natural products are produced by actinomycetes and other bacteria. PTMs are often bioactive, and the simplicity of their biosynthetic clusters make them attractive for bioengineering. Clifednamide-type PTMs from Streptomyces sp. strain JV178 contain a distinctive ketone group, suggesting the existence of a novel PTM oxidizing enzyme. Here, we report the new cytochrome P450 enzyme (CftA) is required for clifednamide production. Genome mining was used to identify several new clifednamide producers, some having improved clifednamide yields. Using a parallel synthetic biology approach, CftA isozymes were used to engineer the ikarugamycin pathway of Streptomyces sp. strain NRRL F-2890 to yield clifednamides. Further, we observed that strong CftA expression leads to the production of a new PTM, clifednamide C. We demonstrate the utility of both genome mining and synthetic biology to rapidly increase clifednamide production.

Abstract
Streptomyces are Gram-positive bacteria that occupy diverse ecological niches including host-associations with animals and plants. Members of this genus are known for their overwhelming repertoire of natural products, which has been exploited for almost a century as a source of medicines and agrochemicals. Notwithstanding intense scientific and commercial interest in Streptomyces natural products, surprisingly little is known of the intra- and/or inter-species ecological roles played by these metabolites. In this report we describe the chemical structures, biological properties, and biosynthetic relationships between natural products produced by Streptomyces isolated from internal tissues of predatory Conus snails, collected from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Using chromatographic, spectroscopic and bioassays methodology, we demonstrate that Streptomyces isolated from five different Conus species produce identical chemical and antifungal profiles - comprising a suite of polycyclic tetramic acid macrolactams (PTMs). To investigate possible ecological (and evolutionary) relationships we used genome analyses to reveal a close taxonomic relationship with other sponge-derived and free-living PTM producing Streptomyces (i.e., Streptomyces albus). In-depth phylogenomic analysis of PTM biosynthetic gene clusters indicated PTM structure diversity was governed by a small repertoire of genetic elements, including discrete gene acquisition events involving dehydrogenases. Overall, our study shows a Streptomyces-Conus ecological relationship that is concomitant with specific PTM chemical profiles. We provide an evolutionary framework to explain this relationship, driven by anti-fungal properties that protect Conus snails from fungal pathogens.
