(2,6)-Diamino-(5,7)-dihydroxyheptanoic acid (DADH), a non-proteinogenic amino acid, is converted to 1-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane ring-containing amino acids that are subsequently incorporated into ficellomycin and vazabitide A. The present study revealed that the sugar aminotransferase-like enzymes Fic25 and Vzb9, with a high amino acid sequence identity (56%) to each other, synthesized stereoisomers of DADH with (6S) and (6R) configurations, respectively. The crystal structure of the Fic25 complex with a PLP-(6S)-N(2)-acetyl-DADH adduct indicated that Asn45 and Gln197 (Asn205 and Ala53 in Vzb9) were located at positions that affected the stereochemistry of DADH being synthesized. A modeling study suggested that amino acid substitutions between Fic25 and Vzb9 allowed the enzymes to bind to the substrate with almost 180 degrees rotation in the C5-C7 portions of the DADH molecules, accompanied by a concomitant shift in their C1-C4 portions. In support of this result, the replacement of two corresponding residues in Fic25 and Vzb9 increased (6R) and (6S) stereoselectivities, respectively. The different stereochemistry at C6 of DADH resulted in a different stereochemistry/orientation of the aziridine portion of the 1-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane ring, which plays a crucial role in biological activity, between ficellomycin and vazabitide A. A phylogenic analysis suggested that Fic25 and Vzb9 evolved from sugar aminotransferases to produce unusual building blocks for expanding the structural diversity of secondary metabolites.
