Biosynthetic Pathway Connects Cryptic Ribosomally Synthesized Posttranslationally Modified Peptide Genes with Pyrroloquinoline Alkaloids

Abstract: Summary In an era where natural product biosynthetic gene clusters can be rapidly identified from sequenced genomes, it is unusual for the biosynthesis of an entire natural product class to remain unknown. Yet, the genetic determinates for pyrroloquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis have remained obscure despite their abundance and deceptive structural simplicity. In this work, we have identified the biosynthetic gene cluster for the ammosamides A-C, pyrroloquinoline alkaloids from Streptomyces sp. CNR-698. Through… Show more

“…Another FDH, which appears to halogenate a precursor of Ammosamide B (Fig. 4A, 10 ), has recently been identified and demonstrates the highest sequence homology to MibH (79). It was originally thought that chlorination of L-Trp by this FDH, Amm3, was the first biosynthetic step for Ammosamide B; however, evidence suggests that Amm3 chlorinates a downstream precursor (79).…”

“…Highlights of important patterns shown in Figure 1 are organized around compounds containing the C 10 N 2 pyrrolo[4,3,2- de ]quinoline. This framework is now considered to be created by ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP) pathways delivering a C-terminal tryptophan building block [16]. The compilation in Figure 1 also abstracts therapeutic assessment outcomes for eight different lead structures [8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,17,18,19,20,21,22].…”

“…An intramolecular Michael addition, reoxidation of the hydroquinone and halogenation through FADH 2 ‐dependent halogenases or haloperoxidases would lead to the halogenated pyrrolo[4,3,2‐ de ]quinoline alkaloids 1b and 1c ,. Halogenation at an earlier stage of the biosynthesis might also be possible . N ‐methylation of 1b and 1c via a SAM‐dependent methyltransferase would afford the alkaloids 1d and 1e .…”

“…Halogenation at an earlier stage of the biosynthesis might also be possible . N ‐methylation of 1b and 1c via a SAM‐dependent methyltransferase would afford the alkaloids 1d and 1e . The proposed biosynthesis is supported by the fact that the non‐halogenated pyrrolo[4,3,2‐ de ]quinoline alkaloid damirone C ( 1a ) was isolated from Z. fuliginosa …”
