SalL double mutant Y70T/G131S with CLDA and L-MET

Overview

Halogen atom incorporation into a scaffold of bioactive compounds often, amplifies biological activity, as is the case for the anticancer agent, salinosporamide A (1), a chlorinated natural product from the marine, bacterium Salinispora tropica. Significant effort in understanding, enzymatic chlorination shows that oxidative routes predominate to form, reactive electrophilic or radical chlorine species. Here we report the, genetic, biochemical and structural characterization of the chlorinase, SalL, which halogenates S-adenosyl-L-methionine (2) with chloride to, generate 5'-chloro-5'-deoxyadenosine (3) and L-methionine (4) in a rarely, observed nucleophilic substitution strategy analogous to that of, Streptomyces cattleya fluorinase. Further metabolic tailoring produces a, halogenated polyketide synthase substrate specific for salinosporamide A, biosynthesis. SalL also accepts bromide and iodide as substrates, but not, fluoride. High-resolution crystal structures of SalL and active site, mutants complexed with substrates and products support the S(N)2, nucleophilic substitution mechanism and further illuminate halide, specificity in this newly discovered halogenase family.
