[MCBA_ECOLX] This glycine-rich peptide antibiotic inhibits DNA replication in many enteric bacteria, that leads to induction of the SOS repair system, massive DNA degradation and cell death. B17 inhibits type II topoisomerase by trapping an enzyme - DNA cleavable complex. [MCBC_ECOLX] Necessary to process the inactive microcin B17 (McbA) precursor into the active peptide. [MCBB_ECOLX] Necessary to process the inactive microcin B17 (McbA) precursor into the active peptide. Publication Abstract from PubMed The introduction of azole heterocycles into a peptide backbone is the principal step in the biosynthesis of numerous compounds with therapeutic potential. One of them is microcin B17, a bacterial topoisomerase inhibitor whose activity depends on the conversion of selected serine and cysteine residues of the precursor peptide to oxazoles and thiazoles by the McbBCD synthetase complex. Crystal structures of McbBCD reveal an octameric B4C2D2 complex with two bound substrate peptides. Each McbB dimer clamps the N-terminal recognition sequence, while the C-terminal heterocycle of the modified peptide is trapped in the active site of McbC. The McbD and McbC active sites are distant from each other, which necessitates alternate shuttling of the peptide substrate between them, while remaining tethered to the McbB dimer. An atomic-level view of the azole synthetase is a starting point for deeper understanding and control of biosynthesis of a large group of ribosomally synthesized natural products.
