Pyran ring formation in the biosynthesis of actinorhodin in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was studied using the act cluster deficient strain, CH999, carrying pRM5-based plasmids harbouring combinations of the actVI genes. The strain, CH999/pIJ5660 (pRM5 + actVI-ORF1), produced a chiral intermediate, (S)-DNPA, suggesting that the actVI-ORF1 product is a reductase determining the C-3 stereochemical centre.
利用放线紫红素生物合成基因簇(act cluster)缺陷型菌株CH999,该菌株携带基于pRM5的质粒,其中含有actVI基因的组合,对天蓝色链霉菌A3(2)中放线紫红素生物合成过程中的吡喃环形成进行了研究。菌株CH999/pIJ5660(pRM5 + actVI-ORF1)产生了一种手性中间体(S)-DNPA,这表明actVI-ORF1产物是一种决定C-3立体化学中心的还原酶。
