The acyl carrier protein (ACP) of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) functions as a molecular chaperone during the biosynthesis of the polyketide actinorhodin (act). Here we compare structural features of the polyketide synthase (PKS) ACP, determined by two-dimensional 1H-NMR, with the Escherichia coli fatty acid synthase (FAS) ACP. The PKS ACP contains four helices (residues 7-16 [A], 42-53 [B], 62-67 [C], 72-86 [D]), and a large loop (residues 17-41) having no defined secondary structure with the exception of a turn between residues 21 and 24. The act ACP shows 47% sequence similarity with the E. coli FAS ACP and the results demonstrate that the sequence homology is extended to the secondary structure of the proteins.
天蓝色链霉菌A3(2)的酰基载体蛋白(ACP)在聚酮化合物放线紫红素(act)的生物合成过程中作为分子伴侣发挥作用。在此,我们将通过二维1H-NMR测定的聚酮合酶(PKS)ACP的结构特征与大肠杆菌脂肪酸合酶(FAS)ACP进行比较。PKS ACP包含四个螺旋(残基7 - 16 [A]、42 - 53 [B]、62 - 67 [C]、72 - 86 [D]),以及一个除了21和24位残基之间的转角外没有明确二级结构的大环(残基17 - 41)。放线紫红素ACP与大肠杆菌FAS ACP显示出47%的序列相似性,结果表明序列同源性延伸至蛋白质的二级结构。
