[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CLPS_STRNR CLPS_STRNR]] Involved in the biosynthesis of albonoursin (cyclo[(alpha,beta-dehydro-Phe)-(alpha,beta-dehydro-Leu)]), an antibacterial peptide. It uses activated amino acids in the form of aminoacyl-tRNAs (aa-tRNAs) as substrates to catalyze the ATP-independent formation of cyclodipeptides which are intermediates in diketopiperazine (DKP) biosynthetic pathways. Catalyzes the formation of cyclo(L-Phe-L-Leu) (cFL) as major products from L-L-phenylalanyl-tRNA(Phe) and L-leucyl-tRNA(Leu). AlbC can also incorporate various nonpolar residues, such as L-phenylalanine, L-leucine, L-tyrosine and L-methionine, and to a much lesser extent L-alanine and L-valine, into cyclodipeptides. Indeed, ten possible cyclodipeptides composed of L-phenylalanine, L-leucine, L-tyrosine and L-methionine are all synthesized to detectable amounts by AlbC.<ref>PMID:12498889</ref> <ref>PMID:19430487</ref> | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CLPS_STRNR CLPS_STRNR]] Involved in the biosynthesis of albonoursin (cyclo[(alpha,beta-dehydro-Phe)-(alpha,beta-dehydro-Leu)]), an antibacterial peptide.

| + | Cyclodipeptide synthases form cyclodipeptides from two aminoacyl transfer RNAs. They use a ping-pong mechanism that begins with transfer of the aminoacyl moiety of the first aminoacyl tRNA onto a conserved serine, yielding an aminoacyl enzyme. Combining X-ray crystallography, site-directed mutagenesis and affinity labelling of the cyclodipeptide synthase AlbC, we demonstrate that the covalent intermediate reacts with the aminoacyl moiety of the second aminoacyl tRNA, forming a dipeptidyl enzyme, and identify the aminoacyl-binding sites of the aminoacyl tRNAs. | ||
