| 1 | Indole methylation protects diketopiperazine configuration in the maremycin biosynthetic pathway显示文摘The maremycin biosynthetic gene cluster has been identified in Streptomyces sp. B9173. Comparative metabolic profiling with knockout mutant strains led to the identification of new products correlated to the maremycin biosynthesis, in particular the'demethyl'-maremycins with an unexpected D-tryptophan unit. A biosynthetic pathway for the maremycins is proposed and plausible reasoning for tryptophan epimerization in the demethylmaremycin biosynthesis is also provided. | Yingxia Lan Yi Zou Tingting Huang Xiaozheng Wang Nelson L.

| 2 | A rare variant in COL11A1 is strongly associated with adult height in Chinese Han population显示文摘Human height is a highly heritable trait in which multiple genes are involved. Recent genome-wide association studies(GWASs) have identified that COL11A1 is an important susceptibility gene for human height. To determine whether the variants of COL11A1 are associated with adult and children height,we analyzed splicing and coding single-nucleotide variants across COL11A1 through exome-targeted sequencing and two validation stages with a total 20,426 Chinese Han samples. A total of 105 variants were identified by exome-targeted sequencing, of which 30 SNPs were located in coding region. The strongest association signal was chr1_103380393 with P value of 4.8 * 10^(-7). Chr1_103380393 also showed nominal significance in the validation stage(P = 1.21 * 10^(-6)). Combined analysis of 16,738 samples strengthened the original association of chr1_103380393 with adult height(P_(combined)= 3.1 * 10^(-8)), with an increased height of 0.292sd(standard deviation) per G allele(95% CI:0.19-0.40). There was no evidence(P = 0.843) showing that chr1_103380393 altered child height in 3688 child samples. Only the group of 12-15 years showed slight significance with P value of 0.0258.This study firstly shows that genetic variants of COL11A1 contribute to adult height in Chinese Han population but not to children height, which expand our knowledge of the genetic factors underlying height variation and the biological regulation of human height. | Changbing Shen Xiaodong Zheng Jing Gao Caihong Zhu Randy Ko Xianfa Tang Chao Yang Jinfa Dou Yan Lin Yuyan Cheng Lu Liu Shuangjun Xu Gang Chen Xianbo Zuo Xianyong Yin Liangdan Sun Yong Cui Sen Yang Xuejun Zhang Fusheng Zhou | 2016 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2016，43，9： | 1 |
| 3 | Characterization of the tunicamycin gene cluster unveiling unique steps involved in its biosynthesis显示文摘Tunicamycin,a potent reversible translocase I inhibitor,is produced by several Actinomycetes species.The tunicamycin structure is highly unusual,and contains an 11-carbon dialdose sugar and anα,β-1″,11′-glycosidic linkage.Here we report the identification of a gene cluster essential for tunicamycin biosynthesis by high-throughput heterologous expression(HHE)strategy combined with a bioassay.Introduction of the genes into heterologous non-producing Streptomyces hosts results in production of tunicamycin by these strains,demonstrating the role of the genes for the biosynthesis of tunicamycins.Gene disruption experiments coupled with bioinformatic analysis revealed that the tunicamycin gene cluster is minimally composed of 12 genes(tunA–tunL).Amongst these is a putative radical SAM enzyme(Tun B)with a potentially unique role in biosynthetic carbon-carbon bond formation.Hence,a seven-step novel pathway is proposed for tunicamycin biosynthesis.Moreover,two gene clusters for the potential biosynthesis of tunicamycin-like antibiotics were also identified in Streptomyces clavuligerus ATCC 27064 and Actinosynnema mirums DSM 43827.These data provide clarification of the novel mechanisms for tunicamycin biosynthesis,and for the generation of new-designer tunicamycin analogs with selective/enhanced bioactivity via combinatorial biosynthesis strategies. | Wenqing Chen Dongjing Qu Lipeng Zhai Meifeng Tao Yemin Wang Shuangjun Lin Neil P.J.Price Zixin Deng | 2010 | Protein & Cell2010，1，12： | 1 |
| 4 | Enhancing tylosin production by combinatorial overexpression of efflux,SAM biosynthesis,and regulatory genes in hyperproducing Streptomyces xinghaiensis strain显示文摘Tylosin is a 16-membered macrolide antibiotic widely used in veterinary medicine to control infections caused by Gram-positive pathogens and mycoplasmas.To improve the fermentation titer of tylosin in the hyperproducing Streptomyces xinghaiensis strain TL01,we sequenced its whole genome and identified the biosynthetic gene cluster therein.Overexpression of the tylosin efflux gene tlrC,the cluster-situated S-adenosyl methionine(SAM)synthetase gene metK_(cs),the SAM biosynthetic genes adoK_(cs)-metFcs,or the pathway-specific activator gene tylR enhanced tylosin production by 18%,12%,11%,and 11%in the respective engineered strains TLPH08-2,TLPH09,TLPH10,and TLPH12.Co-overexpression of metK_(cs)and adoK_(cs)-metFcs as two transcripts increased tylosin production by 22%in the resultant strain TLPH11 compared to that in TL01.Furthermore,combinational overexpression of tlrC,metK_(cs),adoK_(cs)-metFcs,and tylR as four transcripts increased tylosin production by 23%(10.93g/L)in the resultant strain TLPH17 compared to that in TL01.However,a negligible additive effect was displayed upon combinational overexpression in TLPH17 as suggested by the limited increment of fermentation titer compared to that in TLPH08-2.Transcription analyses indicated that the expression of tlrC and three SAM biosynthetic genes in TLPH17 was considerably lower than that of TLPH08-2 and TLPH11.Based on this observation,the five genes were rearranged into one or two operons to coordinate their overexpression,yielding two engineered strains TLPH23 and TLPH24,and leading to further enhancement of tylosin production over TLPH17.In particular,the production of TLPH23 reached 11.35 g/L.These findings indicated that the combinatorial strategy is a promising approach for enhancing tylosin production in high-yielding industrial strains. | Penghui Dai Yuyao Qin Luyuan Li Haidi Li Lihuo Lv Danying Xu Yuqing Song Tingting Huang Shuangjun Lin Zixin Deng Meifeng Tao | 2023 | Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology2023，8，3： | 0 |
| 5 | Aryl C–H iodination: are there actual flavin-dependent iodinases in nature?显示文摘Flavin-dependent halogenases (FDHs) are well known to introduce carbon halide bonds (mainly C–Cl and C–Br) into natural products with the assistance of a partner protein flavin reductase to generate reduced flavin (FADH_(2)or FMNH_(2)).Compared with the common chloride-and bromide-containing natural products (approximately 5,000 compounds),iodinated natural products(approximately 100 compounds) are very limited.Specific iodinases have also rarely been identified in nature to date.This study discovered a novel relationship between iodination and flavin reductases for the first time.Through mechanistic studies,it was identified that peroxide (H_(2)O_(2)) was released from the uncoupling reaction of flavin reductases and then reacted with iodide ions(I^(-)) to produce hypoiodous acid (IOH) for the final iodination.Furthermore,this study also unintentionally verified that the recently reported flavin-dependent iodinase Vir X1 from the marine virus and its two homologs (MBG and NCV) did not catalyze iodination in the in vitro biochemical system but likely belonged to a new phylogenetic clade in the tryptophan halogenase superfamily.As a consequence,actual flavin-dependent iodinases in nature remain to be discovered by the scientific community in the future. | Yuyang Zhang Lin Chen Hongping Chen Tingting Huang Qing Shi Xiaozheng Wang Yan Wang Man-Cheng Tang Ning-Yi Zhou Shuangjun Lin | 2021 | Science China Chemistry2021，64，10： | 0 |
