The enzyme 3-deoxy-D- arabino -heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase (DAH7PS) catalyses the first committed step of the shikimate pathway, en route to chorismate. P. aeruginosa expresses multiple, distinct, DAH7PSs that are associated with either primary or secondary aromatic compound biosynthesis. Here we report the structure of a type II DAH7PS, encoded by phzC as part of the duplicated phenazine biosynthetic cluster, from P. aeruginosa (PAO1) revealing for the first time the structure of a type II DAH7PS involved in secondary metabolism. The omission of the structural elements a2aand a2b, relative to other characterised type II DAH7PSs, leads to the formation of an alternative, dimeric, solution-state structure for the type II DAH7PSs with oligomeric interfaces that have not previously been characterised and that do not facilitate the formation of aromatic amino acid allosteric binding sites. The sequence similarity, and in particular the common N-terminal extension, suggests a common origin for the type II DAH7PSs from P. aeruginosa. The results described in this study support the further classification of the type II DAH7PSs as type IIAand type IIBbased on sequence characteristics, structure and function of the resultant proteins, and defined physiological roles within primary or secondary metabolism.
