Function

IPNA_EMENI Isopenicillin N synthase; part of the gene cluster that mediates the biosynthesis of penicillin, the world's most important antibiotic (PubMed:3319778, PubMed:11755401). IpnA catalyzes the cyclization of the tripeptide N-[(5S)-5-amino-5-carboxypentanoyl]-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (LLD-ACV or ACV) to form isopenicillin N (IPN) that contains the beta-lactam nucleus (PubMed:3319778, PubMed:11755401, PubMed:28703303). The penicillin biosynthesis occurs via 3 enzymatic steps, the first corresponding to the production of the tripeptide N-[(5S)-5-amino-5-carboxypentanoyl]-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (LLD-ACV or ACV) by the NRPS acvA. The tripeptide ACV is then cyclized to isopenicillin N (IPN) by the isopenicillin N synthase ipnA that forms the beta-lactam nucleus. Finally, the alpha-aminoadipyl side chain is exchanged for phenylacetic acid by the isopenicillin N acyltransferase penDE to yield penicillin in the peroxisomal matrix (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P08703][1] [2] [3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) catalyses cyclization of delta-(l-alpha-aminoadipoyl)-l-cysteinyl-d-valine (ACV) to isopenicillin N (IPN), the central step in penicillin biosynthesis. Previous studies have shown that IPNS turns over a wide range of substrate analogues in which the valine residue of its natural substrate is replaced with other amino acids. IPNS accepts and oxidizes numerous substrates that bear hydrocarbon sidechains in this position, however the enzyme is less tolerant of analogues presenting polar functionality in place of the valinyl isopropyl group. We report a new ACV analogue delta-(l-alpha-aminoadipoyl)-l-cysteinyl-d-methionine (ACM), which incorporates a thioether in place of the valinyl sidechain. ACM has been synthesized using solution phase methods and crystallized with IPNS. A crystal structure has been elucidated for the IPNS:Fe(II):ACM complex at 1.40A resolution. This structure reveals that ACM binds in the IPNS active site such that the sulfur atom of the methionine thioether binds to iron in the oxygen binding site at a distance of 2.57A. The sulfur of the cysteinyl thiolate sits 2.36A from the metal.
