ABSTRACT
Docking domains (DDs) located at the C- and N-termini of polypeptides play a crucial role in directing the assembly of polyketide synthases (PKSs), which are multienzyme complexes. Here, we determined the crystal structure of a complex comprising the C-terminal DD (CDDMlnB) and N-terminal DD (NDDMlnC) of macrolactin trans-acyltransferase (AT) PKS that were fused to a functional enzyme, AmpC EC2 ß-lactamase. Interface analyses of the CDDMlnB/NDDMlnC complex revealed the molecular intricacies in the core section underpinning the precise DD assembly. Additionally, circular dichroism and steady-state kinetics demonstrated that the formation of the CDDMlnB/NDDMlnC complex had no influence on the structural and functional fidelity of the fusion partner, AmpC EC2. This inspired us to apply the CDDMlnB/NDDMlnC assembly to metabolon engineering. Indeed, DD assembly induced the formation of a complex between 4-coumarate-CoA ligase and chalcone synthase both involved in flavonoid biosynthesis, leading to a remarkable increase in naringenin production in vitro.
