RESUMEN

BelL and HrmJ are α-ketoglutarate-dependent nonheme iron enzymes that catalyze the oxidative cyclization of 6-nitronorleucine, resulting in the formation of two diastereomeric 3-(2-nitrocyclopropyl)alanine (Ncpa) products containing trans-cyclopropane rings with (1'R,2'R) and (1'S,2'S) configurations, respectively. Herein, we investigate the catalytic mechanism and stereodivergency of the cyclopropanases. The results suggest that the nitroalkane moiety of the substrate is first deprotonated to produce the nitronate form. Spectroscopic analyses and biochemical assays with substrates and analogues indicate that an iron(IV)-oxo species abstracts proS-H from C4 to initiate intramolecular C-C bond formation. A hydroxylation intermediate is unlikely to be involved in the cyclopropanation reaction. Additionally, a genome mining approach is employed to discover new homologues that perform the cyclopropanation of 6-nitronorleucine to generate cis-configured Ncpa products with (1'R,2'S) or (1'S,2'R) stereochemistries. Sequence and structure comparisons of these cyclopropanases enable us to determine the amino acid residues critical for controlling the stereoselectivity of cyclopropanation.

RESUMEN

Belactosins and hormaomycins are peptide natural products containing 3-(2-aminocyclopropyl)alanine and 3-(2-nitrocyclopropyl)alanine residues, respectively, with opposite stereoconfigurations of the cyclopropane ring. Herein we demonstrate that the heme oxygenase-like enzymes BelK and HrmI catalyze the N-oxygenation of l-lysine to generate 6-nitronorleucine. The nonheme iron enzymes BelL and HrmJ then cyclize the nitroalkane moiety to the nitrocyclopropane ring with the desired stereochemistry found in the corresponding natural products. We also show that both cyclopropanases remove the 4-proS-H of 6-nitronorleucine during the cyclization, establishing the inversion and retention of the configuration at C4 during the BelL and HrmJ reactions, respectively. This study reveals the unique strategy for stereocontrolled cyclopropane synthesis in nature.
