ABSTRACT
In fungal non-reducing polyketide synthases (NR-PKS) the acyl-carrier protein (ACP) carries the growing polyketide intermediate through iterative rounds of elongation, cyclization and product release. This process occurs through a controlled, yet enigmatic coordination of the ACP with its partner enzymes. The transient nature of ACP interactions with these catalytic domains imposes a major obstacle for investigation of the influence of protein-protein interactions on polyketide product outcome. To further our understanding about how the ACP interacts with the product template (PT) domain that catalyzes polyketide cyclization, we developed the first mechanism-based crosslinkers for NR-PKSs. Through inâ
vitro assays, inâ
silico docking and bioinformatics, ACP residues involved in ACP-PT recognition were identified. We used this information to improve ACP compatibility with non-cognate PT domains, which resulted in the first gain-of-function ACP with improved interactions with its partner enzymes. This advance will aid in future combinatorial biosynthesis of new polyketides.
