Abstract
Many scientific fields, although driven by similar purposes and dealing with similar technologies, often appear so isolated and far from each other that even the vocabularies to describe the very same phenomenon might differ. Concerning the vast field of biocatalysis, a special role is played by those redox enzymes that employ oxygen-based chemistry to unlock transformations otherwise possible only with metal-based catalysts. As such, greener chemical synthesis methods and environmentally-driven biotechnological approaches were enabled over the last decades by the use of several enzymes and ultimately resulted in the first industrial applications. Among what can be called today the environmental biorefinery sector, biomass transformation, greenhouse gas reduction, bio-gas/fuels production, bioremediation, as well as bulk or fine chemicals and even pharmaceuticals manufacturing are all examples of fields in which successful prototypes have been demonstrated employing redox enzymes. In this review we decided to focus on the most prominent enzymes (MMOs, LPMO, P450 and UPO) capable of overcoming the ∼100 kcal mol-1 barrier of inactivated CH bonds for the oxyfunctionalization of organic compounds. Harnessing the enormous potential that lies within these enzymes is of extreme value to develop sustainable industrial schemes and it is still deeply coveted by many within the aforementioned fields of application. Hence, the ambitious scope of this account is to bridge the current cutting-edge knowledge gathered upon each enzyme. By creating a broad comparison, scientists belonging to the different fields may find inspiration and might overcome obstacles already solved by the others. This work is organised in three major parts: a first section will be serving as an introduction to each one of the enzymes regarding their structural and activity diversity, whereas a second one will be encompassing the mechanistic aspects of their catalysis. In this regard, the machineries that lead to analogous catalytic outcomes are depicted, highlighting the major differences and similarities. Finally, a third section will be focusing on the elements that allow the oxyfunctionalization chemistry to occur by delivering redox equivalents to the enzyme by the action of diverse redox partners. Redox partners are often overlooked in comparison to the catalytic counterparts, yet they represent fundamental elements to better understand and further develop practical applications based on mono- and peroxygenases.

Abstract
The antitumor drug doxorubicin is widely used in clinical practice. However, the low yield and high cost of this drug highlight the urgent need for cost-effective processes to rapidly manufacture antitumor drugs at scale. In the biosynthesis pathway, the multi-functional cytochrome P450 enzyme DoxA catalyzes the last three steps of hydroxylation. The final conversion of daunorubicin to doxorubicin is the rate-limiting step. In our work, the DoxA has been expressed with the ferredoxin reductase FDR2 and the ferredoxin FDX1 and purified to homogeneous. The reduced carbon monoxide difference spectroscopy, heme concentration, and enzymatic characteristic were characterized. These studies suggest an approach for engineering Streptomyces P450s with functional expression for mechanistic and structural studies.

Whole-Genome Sequencing of a Chlorimuron-Ethyl-Degrading Strain: Chenggangzhangella methanolivorans CHL1 and Its Degrading Enzymes. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0182222. [PMID: 35861510 PMCID: PMC9430300 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01822-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Chlorimuron-ethyl is a commonly used sulfonylurea herbicide, and its long-term residues cause serious environmental problems. Biodegradation of chlorimuron-ethyl is effective and feasible, and many degrading strains have been obtained, but still, the genes and enzymes involved in this degradation are often unclear. In this study, whole-genome sequencing was performed on chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading strain, Chenggangzhangella methanolivorans CHL1. The complete genome of strain CHL1 contains one circular chromosome of 5,542,510 bp and a G+C content of 68.17 mol%. Three genes, sulE, pnbA, and gst, were predicted to be involved in the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl, and this was confirmed by gene knockout and gene complementation experiments. The three genes were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) to allow for the evaluation of the catalytic activities of the respective enzymes. The glutathione-S-transferase (GST) catalyzes the cleavage of the sulfonylurea bridge of chlorimuron-ethyl, and the esterases, PnbA and SulE, both de-esterify it. This study identifies three key functional genes of strain CHL1 that are involved in the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl and also provides new approaches by which to construct engineered bacteria for the bioremediation of environments polluted with sulfonylurea herbicides. IMPORTANCE Chlorimuron-ethyl is a commonly used sulfonylurea herbicide, worldwide. However, its residues in soil and water have a potent toxicity toward sensitive crops and other organisms, such as microbes and aquatic algae, and this causes serious problems for the environment. Microbial degradation has been demonstrated to be a feasible and promising strategy by which to eliminate xenobiotics from the environment. Many chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading microorganisms have been reported, but few studies have investigated the genes and enzymes that are involved in the degradation. In this work, two esterase-encoding genes (sulE, pnbA) and a glutathione-S-transferase-encoding gene (gst) responsible for the detoxification of chlorimuron-ethyl by strain Chenggangzhangella methanolivorans CHL1 were identified, then cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). These key chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading enzymes are candidates for the construction of engineered bacteria to degrade this pesticide and enrich the resources for bioremediating environments polluted with sulfonylurea herbicides.

A bifunctional enzyme belonging to cytochrome P450 family involved in the O-dealkylation and N-dealkoxymethylation toward chloroacetanilide herbicides in Rhodococcus sp. B2. Microb Cell Fact 2021; 20:61.

Abstract
Background The chloroacetamide herbicides pretilachlor is an emerging pollutant. Due to the large amount of use, its presence in the environment threatens human health. However, the molecular mechanism of pretilachlor degradation remains unknown. Results Now, Rhodococcus sp. B2 was isolated from rice field and shown to degrade pretilachlor. The maximum pretilachlor degradation efficiency (86.1%) was observed at a culture time of 5 d, an initial substrate concentration 50 mg/L, pH 6.98, and 30.1 °C. One novel metabolite N-hydroxyethyl-2-chloro-N-(2, 6-diethyl-phenyl)-acetamide was identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Draft genome comparison demonstrated that a 32,147-bp DNA fragment, harboring gene cluster (EthRABCDB2), was absent from the mutant strain TB2 which could not degrade pretilachlor. The Eth gene cluster, encodes an AraC/XylS family transcriptional regulator (EthRB2), a ferredoxin reductase (EthAB2), a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (EthBB2), a ferredoxin (EthCB2) and a 10-kDa protein of unknown function (EthDB2). Complementation with EthABCDB2 and EthABDB2, but not EthABCB2 in strain TB2 restored its ability to degrade chloroacetamide herbicides. Subsequently, codon optimization of EthABCDB2 was performed, after which the optimized components were separately expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified using Ni-affinity chromatography. A mixture of EthABCDB2 or EthABDB2 but not EthABCB2 catalyzed the N-dealkoxymethylation of alachlor, acetochlor, butachlor, and propisochlor and O-dealkylation of pretilachlor, revealing that EthDB2 acted as a ferredoxin in strain B2. EthABDB2 displayed maximal activity at 30 °C and pH 7.5. Conclusions This is the first report of a P450 family oxygenase catalyzing the O-dealkylation and N-dealkoxymethylation of pretilachlor and propisochlor, respectively. And the results of the present study provide a microbial resource for the remediation of chloroacetamide herbicides-contaminated sites.![]()

Abstract
To elucidate the gross lankamycin biosynthetic pathway including two cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, LkmK and LkmF, we constructed two double mutants of P450 genes in combination with glycosyltransferase genes, lkmL and lkmI. An aglycon 8,15-dideoxylankanolide, a possible substrate for LkmK, was prepared from an lkmK-lkmL double mutant, while a monoglycoside 3-O-l-arcanosyl-8-deoxylankanolide, a substrate for LkmF, was from an lkmF-lkmI double mutant. Bioconversion of lankamycin derivatives was performed in the Escherichia coli recombinant for LkmK and the Streptomyces lividans recombinant for LkmF, respectively. LkmK catalyzes the C-15 hydroxylation on all 15-deoxy derivatives, including 8,15-dideoxylankanolide (a possible substrate), 8,15-dideoxylankamycin, and 15-deoxylankamycin, suggesting the relaxed substrate specificity of LkmK. On the other hand, LkmF hydroxylates the C-8 methine of 3-O-l-anosyl-8-deoxylankanolide. Other 8-deoxy lankamycin/lankanolide derivatives were not oxidized, suggesting the importance of a C-3 l-arcanosyl moiety for substrate recognition by LkmF in lankamycin biosynthesis. Thus, LkmF has a strict substrate specificity in lankamycin biosynthesis.

Abstract
Streptomyces is one of the most versatile genera for biotechnological applications, widely employed as platform in the production of drugs. Although streptomycetes have a complex life cycle and metabolism that would need multidisciplinary approaches, review papers have generally reported only studies on single aspects like the isolation of new strains and metabolites, morphology investigations, and genetic or metabolic studies. Besides, even if streptomycetes are extensively used in industry, very few review papers have focused their attention on the technical aspects of biotechnological processes of drug production and bioconversion and on the key parameters that have to be set up. This mini-review extensively illustrates the most innovative developments and progresses in biotechnological production and bioconversion processes of antibiotics, immunosuppressant, anticancer, steroidal drugs, and anthelmintic agents by streptomycetes, focusing on the process development aspects, describing the different approaches and technologies used in order to improve the production yields. The influence of nutrients and oxygen on streptomycetes metabolism, new fed-batch fermentation strategies, innovative precursor supplementation approaches, and specific bioreactor design as well as biotechnological strategies coupled with metabolic engineering and genetic tools for strain improvement is described. The use of whole, free, and immobilized cells on unusual supports was also reported for bioconversion processes of drugs. The most outstanding thirty investigations published in the last 8 years are here reported while future trends and perspectives of biotechnological research in the field have been illustrated. KEY POINTS: • Updated Streptomyces biotechnological processes for drug production are reported. • Innovative approaches for Streptomyces-based biotransformation of drugs are reviewed. • News about fermentation and genome systems to enhance secondary metabolite production.

Abstract
Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) catalyse the conversion of epoxides into vicinal diols. These enzymes have extensive value in biocatalysis as they can generate enantiopure epoxides and diols which are important and versatile synthetic intermediates for the fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Despite these benefits, they have seen limited use in the bioindustry and novel EHs continue to be reported in the literature. We identified twenty-nine putative EHs within the genomes of soil bacteria. Eight of these EHs were explored in terms of their activity. Two limonene epoxide hydrolases (LEHs) and one ⍺/β EH were active on a model compound styrene oxide and its ring-substituted derivatives, with low to good percentage conversions of 18-86%. Further exploration of the substrate scope with enantiopure (R)-styrene oxide and (S)-styrene oxide, showed different epoxide ring opening regioselectivities. Two enzymes, expressed from plasmids pQR1984 and pQR1990 de-symmetrised the meso-epoxide cyclohexene oxide, forming the (R,R)-diol with high enantioselectivity. Two LEHs, from plasmids pQR1980 and pQR1982 catalysed the hydrolysis of (+) and (-) limonene oxide, with diastereomeric preference for the (1S,2S,4R)- and (1R,2R,4S)-diol products, respectively. The enzyme from plasmid pQR1982 had a good substrate scope for a LEH, being active towards styrene oxide, its analogues, cyclohexene oxide and 1,2-epoxyhexane in addition to (±)-limonene oxide. The enzymes from plasmids pQR1982 and pQR1984 had good substrate scopes and their enzymatic properties were characterised with respect to styrene oxide. They had comparable temperature optima and pQR1984 had 70% activity in the presence of 40% of the green solvent MeOH, a useful property for bio-industrial applications. Overall, this study has provided novel EHs with potential value in industrial biocatalysis.

[PMID: 32854353 PMCID: PMC7564063 DOI: 10.3390/biom10091237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2020] [Revised: 08/22/2020] [Accepted: 08/24/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Streptomyces rochei 7434AN4 produces two structurally unrelated polyketide antibiotics lankacidin and lankamycin, and their biosynthesis is tightly controlled by butenolide-type signaling molecules SRB1 and SRB2. SRBs are synthesized by SRB synthase SrrX, and induce lankacidin and lankamycin production at 40 nM concentration. We here investigated the role of a P450 monooxygenase gene srrO (orf84), which is located adjacent to srrX (orf85), in SRB biosynthesis. An srrO mutant KA54 accumulated lankacidin and lankamycin at a normal level when compared with the parent strain. To elucidate the chemical structures of the signaling molecules accumulated in KA54 (termed as KA54-SRBs), this mutant was cultured (30 L) and the active components were purified. Two active components (KA54-SRB1 and KA54-SRB2) were detected in ESI-MS and chiral HPLC analysis. The molecular formulae for KA54-SRB1 and KA54-SRB2 are C15H26O4 and C16H28O4, whose values are one oxygen smaller and two hydrogen larger when compared with those for SRB1 and SRB2, respectively. Based on extensive NMR analysis, the signaling molecules in KA54 were determined to be 6'-deoxo-SRB1 and 6'-deoxo-SRB2. Gel shift analysis indicated that a ligand affinity of 6'-deoxo-SRB1 to the specific receptor SrrA was 100-fold less than that of SRB1. We performed bioconversion of the synthetic 6'-deoxo-SRB1 in the Streptomyces lividans recombinant carrying SrrO-expression plasmid. Substrate 6'-deoxo-SRB1 was converted through 6'-deoxo-6'-hydroxy-SRB1 to SRB1 in a time-dependent manner. Thus, these results clearly indicated that SrrO catalyzes the C-6' oxidation at a final step in SRB biosynthesis.

[PMID: 32775708 PMCID: PMC7394738 DOI: 10.1016/j.synbio.2020.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2020] [Revised: 07/09/2020] [Accepted: 07/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP-sb21 from the rare actinomycete Sebekia benihana is capable of hydroxylating the immunosuppressive drug molecule cyclosporine A (CsA) primarily at the 4th N-methyl leucine (MeLeu4), giving rise to γ-hydroxy-N-methyl-l-Leu4-CsA (CsA-4-OH). This oxidative modification of CsA leads to dramatically reduced immunosuppressive activity while retaining the hair growth-promoting side-effect, thus demonstrating great application potential in both pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. However, this P450 enzyme also hydroxylates CsA at the unwanted position of the 9th N-methyl leucine (MeLeu9), indicating that the regioselectivity needs to be improved for the development of CsA-4-OH into a commercial hair growth stimulator. Herein, we report the crystal structure of CYP-sb21 in its substrate-free form at 1.85 Å. Together with sequence and 3D structure comparisons, Autodock-based substrate docking, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, and site-directed mutagenesis, we identified a number of key residues including R294, E264, and M179 that can improve catalytic efficiency or change the regioselectivity of CYP-sb21 towards CsA, setting the stage for better enzymatic preparation of CsA-4-OH. This study also provides new insights into the substrate recognition and binding mechanism of P450 enzymes that accommodate bulky substrates.

Abstract
Covering: up to January 2017Cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450s) are some of the most exquisite and versatile biocatalysts found in nature. In addition to their well-known roles in steroid biosynthesis and drug metabolism in humans, P450s are key players in natural product biosynthetic pathways. Natural products, the most chemically and structurally diverse small molecules known, require an extensive collection of P450s to accept and functionalize their unique scaffolds. In this review, we survey the current catalytic landscape of P450s within the Streptomyces genus, one of the most prolific producers of natural products, and comprehensively summarize the functionally characterized P450s from Streptomyces. A sequence similarity network of >8500 P450s revealed insights into the sequence-function relationships of these oxygen-dependent metalloenzymes. Although only ∼2.4% and <0.4% of streptomycete P450s have been functionally and structurally characterized, respectively, the study of streptomycete P450s involved in the biosynthesis of natural products has revealed their diverse roles in nature, expanded their catalytic repertoire, created structural and mechanistic paradigms, and exposed their potential for biomedical and biotechnological applications. Continued study of these remarkable enzymes will undoubtedly expose their true complement of chemical and biological capabilities.

Abstract
High throughput expression of proteins is often hampered by the failure of certain proteins to express in the particular E. coli host strain used for the study. The identification of a host strain compatible for a wide variety of proteins is desirable. In this study, the recombinant expression of therapeutic proteins Erythropoietin (EPO), Streptokinase (SK) and Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Extra cellular domain (TNFR ED) that vary widely in their chemical nature was studied in four different strains of E. coli namely BL21 (DE3), BL21 (DE3) pLys S, BL21 (DE3) Rosetta pLys S and GJ1158. Since there are no previous report for the analysis of expression and solubility of the above mentioned proteins we studied the same in various E. coli stains. Here we report that E. coli strain GJ1158 which uses salt induction was found to be the most suitable for overexpression of all the three proteins. Interestingly rare codons were found not to play any significant role in the expression. Protein toxicity and aggregation propensity were also studied. One of the major factors influencing expression was the tendency of the protein to aggregate which in turn influences folding and toxicity levels. The solubility of the proteins was inversely proportional to aggregation. Expression levels were in the order of TNFR ED < EPO < SK. In conclusion, it was observed that E. coli GJ1158, a strain known to decrease aggregation of proteins was found to be more suited for expression. This is the first time GJ1158 has been included in this kind of analysis for comparison of protein expression in various E. coli hosts.

Abstract
Chitin synthases are highly important enzymes in nature, where they synthesize structural components in species belonging to different eukaryotic kingdoms, including kingdom Fungi. Unfortunately, their structure and the molecular mechanism of synthesis of their microfibrilar product remain largely unknown, probably because no fungal active chitin synthases have been isolated, possibly due to their extreme hydrophobicity. In this study we have turned to the heterologous expression of the transcript from a small chitin synthase of Rhizopus oryzae (RO3G_00942, Chs1) in Escherichia coli. The enzyme was active, but accumulated mostly in inclusion bodies. High concentrations of arginine or urea solubilized the enzyme, but their dilution led to its denaturation and precipitation. Nevertheless, use of urea permitted the purification of small amounts of the enzyme. The properties of Chs1 (Km, optimum temperature and pH, effect of GlcNAc) were abnormal, probably because it lacks the hydrophobic transmembrane regions characteristic of chitin synthases. The product of the enzyme showed that, contrasting with chitin made by membrane-bound Chs's and chitosomes, was only partially in the form of short microfibrils of low crystallinity. This approach may lead to future developments to obtain active chitin synthases that permit understanding their molecular mechanism of activity, and microfibril assembly.

Abstract
Background De novo production of multi-hydroxylated diterpenoids is challenging due to the lack of efficient redox systems. Results In this study a new reductase/ferredoxin system from Streptomyces afghaniensis (AfR·Afx) was identified, which allowed the Escherichia coli-based production of the trihydroxylated diterpene cyclooctatin, a potent inhibitor of human lysophospholipase. This production system provides a 43-fold increase in cyclooctatin yield (15 mg/L) compared to the native producer. AfR·Afx is superior in activating the cylcooctatin-specific class I P450s CotB3/CotB4 compared to the conventional Pseudomonas putida derived PdR·Pdx model. To enhance the activity of the PdR·Pdx system, the molecular basis for these activity differences, was examined by molecular engineering. Conclusion We demonstrate that redox system engineering can boost and harmonize the catalytic efficiency of class I hydroxylase enzyme cascades. Enhancing CotB3/CotB4 activities also provided for identification of CotB3 substrate promiscuity and sinularcasbane D production, a functionalized diterpenoid originally isolated from the soft coral Sinularia sp.

Abstract
Streptomyces peucetius ATCC27952 contains the cytochrome P450 monoxygenase DoxA that is responsible for the hydroxylation of daunorubicin into doxorubicin. Although S. peucetius ATCC27952 contains several potential redox partners, the most suitable endogenous electron-transport system is still unclear; therefore, we conducted a study of potential redox partners using Accelrys Discovery Studio 3.5. Recombinant DoxA along with its redox partners from S. peucetius FDX1, FDR2, and FDX3, and the putidaredoxin and putidaredoxin reductase from Pseudomonas putida that are essential equivalents of the class I type of bacterial electron-transport system were over-expressed and purified. The successful development of an efficient redox system was achieved by an in vitro enzymatic catalysis reaction with DoxA. The optimal pH for the activation of the heme was 7.6 and the optimal temperature was 30 °C. Our findings suggest a two-fold increase of DoxA activity via the NADH → FDR2 → FDX1 → DoxA pathway for the hydroxylation of the daunorubicin, and indicate that the usage of a native redox partner may increase daunorubicin-derived doxorubicin production due to the inclusion of DoxA.

Abstract
It was previously proposed that regiospecific hydroxylation of daidzein at 3'-position is mediated by cytochrome P450 hydroxylase (CYP105D7) in the presence of putidaredoxin (CamB) and putidaredoxin reductase (CamA) as electron transfer proteins from Pseudomonas putida. The genome sequence of Streptomyces avermitilis MA4680 revealed 33 P450 (CYPs) with 6 ferredoxin reductases (Fprs) and 9 ferredoxins (Fdxs) as their putative electron transfer partner proteins. To identify right endogenous electron transfer proteins for CYP105D7 activity, in vitro reconstitution, gene disruption, and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) mRNA expression profile analysis were examined. The most effective electron transfer proteins for CYP105D7 appear to be FdxH (SAV7470), which is located downstream to CYP105D7 as a cluster, and FprD (SAV5675). Throughout our overall analysis, we proposed that the primary electron transfer pathway for CYP105D7 follows as such NAD(P)H→FdxH→FprD→CYP105D7.

Abstract
Certain members of the cytochromes P450 superfamily metabolize polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acids to several classes of oxygenated metabolites. An approach based on in silico analysis predicted that Streptomyces peucetius CYP107N3 might be a fatty acid-metabolizing enzyme, showing high homology with epoxidase enzymes. Homology modeling and docking studies of CYP107N3 showed that oleic acid can fit directly into the active site pocket of the double bond of oleic acid within optimum distance of 4.6 Å from the Fe. In order to confirm the epoxidation activity proposed by in silico analysis, a gene coding CYP107N3 was expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified CYP107N3 was shown to catalyze C9-C10 epoxidation of oleic acid in vitro to 9,10-epoxy stearic acid confirmed by ESI-MS, HPLC-MS and GC-MS spectral analysis.

Abstract
It was previously proposed that regio-specific hydroxylation of an immunosuppressive cyclosporine (CsA) at the 4th N-methyl leucine is mediated by cytochrome P450 hydroxylase (CYP) in the rare actinomycete Sebekia benihana. This modification is thought to be the reason for the hair growth-promoting side effect without the immunosuppressive activity of CsA. Through S. benihana genome sequencing and in silico analysis, we identified the complete cytochrome P450 complement (CYPome) of S. benihana, including 21 CYPs and their electron transfer partners, consisting of 7 ferredoxins (FDs) and 4 ferredoxin reductases (FDRs). Using Escherichia coli conjugation-based S. benihana CYPome-targeted disruption, all of the identified CYP, FD, and FDR genes in S. benihana were individually inactivated. Among the 32 S. benihana exconjugant mutants tested, only a single S. benihana CYP mutant, ΔCYP-sb21, failed to exhibit CsA hydroxylation activity. The hydroxylation was restored by CYP-sb21 gene complementation. Since all S. benihana FD and FDR disruption mutants maintained CsA hydroxylation activity, it can be concluded that CYP-sb21, a new member of the bacterial CYP107 family, is the only essential component of the in vivo regio-specific CsA hydroxylation process in S. benihana. Moreover, expression of an extra copy of the CYP-sb21 gene increased CsA hydroxylation in wild-type S. benihana and an NADPH-enriched Streptomyces coelicolor mutant, by 2-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively. These results show for the first time that regio-specific hydroxylation of CsA is carried out by a specific P450 hydroxylase present in S. benihana, and they set the stage for the biotechnological application of regio-specific CsA hydroxylation through heterologous CYP-sb21 expression.

Abstract
CYP105A1 from Streptomyces griseolus belongs to a widespread family of soluble prokaryotic cytochromes P450. For in vitro studies we established an electron transfer system, consisting of the ferredoxin Etp1(fd) and the ferredoxin reductase Arh1 from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We investigated the metabolism of glibenclamide and glimepiride, hypoglycemic drugs of sulfonylurea type, and determined corresponding in vitro kinetic parameters. The resulting 3-cyclohexyl-hydroxylation activity towards glibenclamide and glimepiride was demonstrated by NMR analysis. Furthermore, the main product of glibenclamide, cis-3-hydroxy-glibenclamide is identical with the phase-1-metabolite of this drug in human. The orientation of glimepiride and glibenclamide in the active site of the enzyme is shown by a computational docking model. For high scale production of sulfonylurea derivatives, we designed whole-cell biocatalysts based on Bacillus megaterium MS941. Surprisingly, the system expressing only CYP105A1 showed a similar activity towards hydroxylation of glimepiride and glibenclamide compared to the system expressing additionally the redox partners, Arh1 and Etp1(fd)(516-618), indicating that the host strain provides a functional endogenous electron transfer system.

Abstract
Rhodococcus jostii RHA1 is a polychlorinated biphenyl degrader. Multi-component biphenyl 2,3-dioxygenase (BphA) genes of RHA1 encode large and small subunits of oxygenase component and ferredoxin and reductase components. They did not express enzyme activity in Escherichia coli. To obtain BphA activity in E. coli, hybrid BphA gene derivatives were constructed by replacing ferredoxin and/or reductase component genes of RHA1 with those of Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707. The results obtained indicate a lack of catalytic activity of the RHA1 ferredoxin component gene, bphAc in E. coli. To determine the cause of inability of RHA1 bphAc to express in E. coli, the bphAc gene was introduced into Rosetta (DE3) pLacI, which has extra tRNA genes for rare codons in E. coli. The resulting strain abundantly produced the bphAc product, and showed activity. These results suggest that codon usage bias is involved in inability of RHA1 bphAc to express its catalytic activity in E. coli.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases form a large superfamily of enzymes that catalyze diverse reactions. The P450 SU1 gene from the soil bacteria Streptomyces griseolus encodes CYP105A1 which acts on various substrates including sulfonylurea herbicides, vitamin D, coumarins, and based on the work presented here, brassinosteroids. P450 SU1 is used as a negative-selection marker in plants because CYP105A1 converts the relatively benign sulfonyl urea pro-herbicide R7402 into a highly phytotoxic product. Consistent with its use for negative selection, transgenic Arabidopsis plants were generated with P450 SU1 situated between recognition sequences for FLP recombinase from yeast to select for recombinase-mediated excision. However, unexpected and prominent developmental aberrations resembling those described for mutants defective in brassinosteroid signaling were observed in many of the lines. RESULTS The phenotypes of the most affected lines included severe stunting, leaf curling, darkened leaves characteristic of anthocyanin accumulation, delayed transition to flowering, low pollen and seed yields, and delayed senescence. Phenotype severity correlated with P450 SU1 transcript abundance, but not with transcript abundance of other experimental genes, strongly implicating CYP105A1 as responsible for the defects. Germination and seedling growth of transgenic and control lines in the presence and absence of 24-epibrassinolide indicated that CYP105A1 disrupts brassinosteroid signaling, most likely by inactivating brassinosteroids. CONCLUSIONS Despite prior use of this gene as a genetic tool, deleterious growth in the absence of R7402 has not been elaborated. We show that this gene can cause aberrant growth by disrupting brassinosteroid signaling and affecting homeostasis.

Abstract
Annotation of genome of Streptomyces peucetius revealed a putative phenylacetic acid degradation NADH oxidoreductase. RT-PCR analysis of the gene readily showed notable transcription in its native state. The transcription level of paaE when the host is grown on phenylacetic acid showed increased transcription. paaE was cloned into a pET32a(+) vector to overexpress the protein coupled with fusion tags in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) and purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography using His-tag. The flavin released from heat-denatured PaaE was identical to that of authentic FAD in HPLC analysis. The purified protein efficiently reduced p-nitroblue tetrazolium (an electron acceptor) in presence of NADH. Cell growth analysis of S. peucetius in phenylacetic acid evidently revealed its involvement in degradation of phenylacetic acid - a key environmental pollutant.

Abstract
The bacterium Actinoplanes sp. ATCC 53771 is known to perform drug metabolism of several xenobiotics similarly to humans. We identified a cytochrome P450 enzyme from this strain, CYP107E4, and expressed it in Escherichia coli using the pET101 vector. The purified enzyme showed the characteristic reduced-CO difference spectra with a peak at 450 nm, indicating the protein is produced in the active form with proper heme incorporation. The CYP107E4 enzyme was found to bind the drug diclofenac. Using redox enzymes from spinach, the reconstituted system is able to produce hydroxylated metabolites of diclofenac. Production of the human 4'-hydroxydiclofenac metabolite by CYP107E4 was confirmed, and a second hydroxylated metabolite was also produced.

Abstract
Pravastatin, an important cholesterol lowering drug, is currently produced by hydroxylation of mevastatin (ML-236B) with Streptomyces carbophilus, in which the enzyme P450sca-2 plays a key role. Little information on the recombinant expression of this enzyme is available. As it is of industrial interest to develop an alternative simplified enzymatic process for pravastatin, as a first step, further study on the heterologous expression of this enzyme is warranted. We report here, for the first time, the purification, and characterization of P450sca-2 expressed in Escherichia coli. A synthetic gene encoding P450sca-2 was designed to suit the standard codon usage of E. coli. Expression of P450sca-2 in E. coli under optimized conditions yielded about 100 nmol purified active P450sca-2 per liter. Directed evolution was further carried out to improve the soluble expression level. In the absence of a facile and sensitive assay, green fluorescent protein (GFP) was used as a reporter to enable high-throughput screening. After three rounds of evolution by error-prone PCR and DNA shuffling, six almost totally soluble mutants were obtained, with the soluble expression levels dramatically improved by about 30-fold. For six most frequently occurring mutations, the corresponding single mutants were created to dissect the effects of these mutations. A single mutation, P159A, was found to be responsible for most of the enhanced solubility observed in the six mutants, and the corresponding single mutant also retained the hydroxylation activity. Our study provides a foundation for future work on improving functional expression of P450sca-2 in E. coli.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 (P450) are hemoproteins encoded by a superfamily of genes nearly ubiquitously distributed in different organisms from all biological kingdoms. The reactions carried out by P450s are extremely diverse and contribute to the biotransformation of drugs, the bioconversion of xenobiotics, the bioactivation of chemical carcinogens, the biosynthesis of physiologically important compounds such as steroids, fatty acids, eicosanoids, fat-soluble vitamins and bile acids, the conversion of alkanes, terpenes and aromatic compounds as well as the degradation of herbicides and insecticides. Cytochromes P450 belong to the group of external monooxygenases and thus receive the necessary electrons for oxygen cleavage and substrate hydroxylation from different redox partners. The classical as well as the recently discovered P450 redox systems are compiled in this paper and classified according to their composition.

Abstract
Streptomyces spp. are known to produce various types of biologically active compounds including antibiotics, antiparasitic agents, herbicides and immunosuppressants. P450 (cytochrome P450) enzymes may have key roles in these biosynthetic and biotransformation reactions. Recent genomic analysis of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) indicates that S. coelicolor may have six ferredoxins (Fdxs), four putative Fdx reductases (FdRs) and 18 P450 genes. However, there are few clues to explain the mechanisms and functions of Streptomyces P450 systems. To solve these questions, we have expressed and purified five S. coelicolor P450s, four FdRs and six Fdxs in Escherichia coli. Of the purified P450s, CYP105D5 has fatty acid hydroxylation activity in a system reconstituted with putidaredoxin reductase and Fdx4 or with spinach FdR and spinach Fdx, although the reconstitutions with FdR2 or FdR3 and any of the Fdxs did not support CYP105D5-catalysed oleic acid hydroxylation. Elucidation of the detailed mechanisms of electron transport system for Streptomyces P450 may provide the perspective for usefulness of P450s as a biocatalyst.

Abstract
Streptomyces sp. strain HK803 produces six analogues of phoslactomycin (Plm A through Plm F). With the exception of Plm B, these analogues contain a C-18 hydroxyl substituent esterified with a range of short-alkyl-chain carboxylic acids. Deletion of the plmS(2) open reading frame (ORF), showing high sequence similarity to bacterial cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs), from the Plm biosynthetic gene cluster has previously resulted in an NP1 mutant producing only Plm B (N. Palaniappan, B. S. Kim, Y. Sekiyama, H. Osada, and K. A. Reynolds, J. Biol. Chem. 278:35552-35557, 2003). Herein, we report that a complementation experiment with an NP1 derivative (NP2), using a recombinant conjugative plasmid carrying the plmS(2) ORF downstream of the ermE* constitutive promoter (pMSG1), restored production of Plm A and Plm C through Plm F. The 1.2-kbp plmS(2) ORF was also expressed efficiently as an N-terminal polyhistidine-tagged protein in Streptomyces coelicolor. The recombinant PlmS(2) converted Plm B to C-18-hydroxy Plm B (Plm G). PlmS(2) was highly specific for Plm B and unable to process a series of derivatives in which either the lactone ring was hydrolyzed or the C-9 phosphate ester was converted to C-9/C-11 phosphorinane. This biochemical analysis and complementation experiment are consistent with a proposed Plm biosynthetic pathway in which the penultimate step is hydroxylation of the cyclohexanecarboxylic acid-derived side chain of Plm B by PlmS(2) (the resulting Plm G is then esterified to provide Plm A and Plm C through Plm F). Kinetic parameters for Plm B hydroxylation by PlmS(2) (K(m) of 45.3 +/- 9.0 microM and k(cat) of 0.27 +/- 0.04 s(-1)) are consistent with this step being a rate-limiting step in the biosynthetic pathway. The penultimate pathway intermediate Plm G has less antifungal activity than Plm A through Plm F and is not observed in fermentations of either the wild-type strain or NP2/pMSG1.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes are a major class of biocatalysts related to the oxidative metabolism of many drugs, assisted by electron transfer partners. The functional expression of the P450 gene in a heterologous host will lead to efficient biotransformation and biodegradation, which are useful in pharmaceutical improvement or environmental cleanup. The soluble cytochrome P450 monooxygenase systems CYP105D1 and CYP107B1 involved in the biotransformation of some xenobiotics, such as secondary metabolites or environmental pollutants, were expressed in Streptomyces lividans TK24 with the Streptomyces expression vector pIJ6021. In whole-cell biotransformation assay using these recombinant strains, the oxidative dealkylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin was detected without any foreign redox partners in the case of CYP107B1, while the activity of CYP105D1 was not monitored until this gene was coexpressed with the ferredoxin gene located downstream of the CYP105D1 gene, and the ferredoxin reductase gene SCF 15.02 from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(II). This result suggests that CYP107B1 is capable of utilizing an endogenous electron transfer partner from the host but not CYP105D1, and that CYP105D1 is complemented by some redox partner imported from closely related strains.

Abstract
The hydroxylation of alpha-ionone 1 and beta-ionone 2 to their corresponding mono-hydroxylated derivatives has been examined using a recombinant E. coli whole cell system, in which cytochromes P450 SU1 and SU2, and P450 SOY were over-expressed with their cognate ferrodoxins. Both substrates are hydroxylated with a high degree of regioselectivity and for alpha-ionone 1 the reaction is highly diastereoselective yielding the anti-isomer.

Abstract
The functional diversity of cytochrome P450s (P450s) of the white-rot basidiomycete, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, was studied. A series of compounds known to be P450 substrates of other organisms were utilized for metabolic studies of P. chrysosporium. Metabolic conversions of benzoic acid, camphor, 1,8-cineol, cinnamic acid, p-coumaric acid, coumarin, cumene, 1,12-dodecanediol, 1-dodecanol, 4-ethoxybenzoic acid, and 7-ethoxycoumarin were observed with P. chrysosporium for the first time. 1-Dodecanol was hydroxylated at seven different positions to form 1,12-, 1,11-, 1,10-, 1,9-, 1,8-, 1,7-, and 1,6-dodecandiols. The effect of piperonyl butoxide, a P450 inhibitor, on the fungal conversion of 1-dodecanol was also investigated, indicating that hydroxylation reactions of 1-dodecanol were inhibited by piperonyl butoxide in a concentration-dependent manner. With 11 substrates, 23 hydroxylation reactions and 2 deethylation reactions were determined and 6 products were new with the position of hydroxyl group incorporated. In conclusion, fungal P450s were shown to have diverse and unique functions.

Abstract
Streptomyces griseolus cytochrome P450SU-1 (CYP105A1) was expressed in Escherichia coli at a level of 1.0 micromol/L culture and purified with a specific content of 18.0 nmol/mg protein. Enzymatic studies revealed that CYP105A1 had 25-hydroxylation activity towards vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. Surprisingly, CYP105A1 also showed 1alpha-hydroxylation activity towards 25(OH)D3. As mammalian mitochondrial CYP27A1 catalyzes a similar two-step hydroxylation towards vitamin D3, the enzymatic properties of CYP105A1 were compared with those of human CYP27A1. The major metabolite of vitamin D2 by CYP105A1 was 25(OH)D2, while the major metabolites by CYP27A1 were both 24(OH)D2 and 27(OH)D2. These results suggest that CYP105A1 recognizes both vitamin D2 and vitamin D3 in a similar manner, while CYP27A1 does not. The Km values of CYP105A1 for vitamin D2 25-hydroxylation, vitamin D3 25-hydroxylation, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1alpha-hydroxylation were 0.59, 0.54, and 0.91 microM, respectively, suggesting a high affinity of CYP105A1 for these substrates.

Abstract
We have determined the genome sequence of 8.7 Mb chromosome of Streptomyces peucetius ATCC 27952, which produces clinically important anthracycline chemotherapeutic agents of the polyketide class of antibiotics, daunorubicin and doxorubicin. The cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily is represented by 19 sequences in the S. peucetius. Among those, 15 code for functional genes, whereas the remaining four are pseudo genes. CYPs from S. peucetius are phylogenetically close to those of Streptomyces amermitilis. Four CYPs are associated with modular PKS of avermectin and two with doxorubicin biosynthetic gene cluster. CYP252A1 is the new family found in S. peucetius, which shares 38% identity to CYP51 from Streptomyces coelicolor A3 (2). Nine CYPs from S. peucetius are found in the cluster containing various regulatory genes including rar operon, conserved in S. coelicolor A3 (2) and Streptomyces griseus. Although two ferredoxins and four ferredoxin reductases have been identified so far, only one ferredoxin reductase was found in the cluster of CYP147F1 in S. peucetius. To date, 174 CYPs have been described from 45 Streptomyces species in all searchable databases. However, only 18 CYPs are clustered with ferredoxin. The comparative study of cytochrome P450s, ferredoxins, and ferredoxin reductases should be useful for the future development and manipulation of antibiotic biosynthetic pathways.
