functional expression of ATX in Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3)-CodonPlus RIPL, expression of N-terminally His6-tagged ATX and its thioester hydrolase domain, and the truncated mutant enzyme form, THID Aspergillus terreus

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
H972A site-directed mutagenesis, the reaction intermediate is bound to the thioester hydrolase domain of ATX formed in the presence of NADPH, and is released as 6-methylsalicylic acid by both the intact ATX and by truncated THID mutant in trans Aspergillus terreus
additional information construction of the THID mutant protein, a His-tagged 61 kDA 541-amino acid region containing thioester hydrolase domain and its downstream, THID shows catalytic activity to hydrolyze a model substrate 6-methylsalicylic acid-N-acetylcysteamine.

Purification (Commentary)

Purification (Comment) Organism
recombinant N-terminally His6-tagged ATX and its thioester hydrolase domain, and the truncated mutant enzyme form, THID, from Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3)-CodonPlus RIPL, by nickel affinity chromatography, and THID further by anion exchange chromatography, followed by gel filtration Aspergillus terreus

Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
acetyl-CoA + 3 malonyl-CoA + NADPH + H+ = 6-methylsalicylate + 4 CoA + 3 CO2 + NADP+ + H2O 6-methylsalicylate synthesis proceeds without catalytic dehydration of the beta-hydroxy triketide intermediate by DH domain which is therefore not required for tetraketide formation. The subsequent aldol cyclization and aromatization of the tetraketide intermediate then form 6-methylsalicylate covalently bound to the ACP phosphopantetheine arm as the thioester. 6-methylsalicylate is released hydrolytically from ATX by the action of the domain hitherto called DH domain, i.e. the thioester hydrolase catalytic domain Aspergillus terreus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution 6-methylsalicylic acid synthase belongs to the iterative type I polyketide synthases Aspergillus terreus
physiological function 6-methylsalicylic acid synthase from Aspergillus terreus is not involved in dehydration of the beta-hydroxytriketide intermediate tethered on the acyl carrier protein but catalyzes thioester hydrolysis to release the product from the acyl carrier protein, via its thioester hydrolase domain, a product-releasing domain that is located in the middle of a multidomain iterative type I polyketide synthase, ATX by itself can synthesize tetraketide and release 6-methylsalicylate as the free acid without involvement of serine protease-type thioesterase, product-releasing mechanism, overview Aspergillus terreus
