In vivo and in vitro, RdmB catalyzes the removal of the carboxylic group from the C-10 position of 15-demethoxyaclacinomycin T coupled to hydroxylation at the same C-10 position. It could also catalyze the removal of the carboxylic group at the C-10 position of 15-demethoxy-epsilon-rhodomycin coupled to hydroxylation at the same C-10 position to yield rhodomycin B. The reaction catalyzes by RdmB is intriguing, since the enzyme does not use any of the cofactors usually associated with hydroxylases such as flavins and/or metal ions to activate molecular oxygen.<ref>PMID:11004563</ref> <ref>PMID:15548527</ref> [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DNRK_STRPE DNRK_STRPE] Involved in the biosynthesis of the anthracyclines carminomycin and daunorubicin (daunomycin) which are aromatic polyketide antibiotics that exhibit high cytotoxicity and are widely applied in the chemotherapy of a variety of cancers. In vivo, catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the 4-O-position of carminomycin to form daunorubicin. In vitro, it also methylates the anthracyclines rhodomycin D (10-carbomethoxy-13-deoxycarminomycin) and 13-deoxy-carminomycin at the 4-hydroxyl position. It is quite specific with respect to the length of the carbohydrate chain at the C7 position, but it can accept substrates with bulky substituent at C10 position.<ref>PMID:15273252</ref> | |
