2-Hydroxy-4-quinolizin-4-one scaffolds were enzymatically synthesized by integrating three enzymes including phenylacetate-CoA ligase (PcPCL) from an endophytic fungus MT-12, malonyl-CoA synthase (AtMatB) from , and a type III polyketide synthase (HsPKS3) from Chinese club moss . The findings paved the way to produce these kinds of structurally interesting alkaloids by engineered microorganisms.
通过整合三种酶,即来自内生真菌MT-12的苯乙酸辅酶A连接酶(PcPCL)、来自拟南芥的丙二酰辅酶A合酶(AtMatB)和来自中华卷柏的III型聚酮合酶(HsPKS3),酶促合成了2-羟基-4-喹唑啉-4-酮支架。这些发现为通过工程微生物生产这类结构有趣的生物碱铺平了道路。
