FunctionLSD19_STRLS Epoxide hydrolase responsible for the double epoxide-opening cyclization of bisepoxyprelasalocid A to form lasalocid A, a polyether antibiotic. In vitro, accepts various substrate analogs differing in the left segment of lasalocid and epoxide stereochemistry to afford products with excellent regioselectivity.[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedBiosynthesis of some polyether natural products involves a kinetically disfavored epoxide-opening cyclic ether formation, a reaction termed anti-Baldwin cyclization. One such example is the biosynthesis of lasalocid A, an ionophore antibiotic polyether. During lasalocid A biosynthesis, an epoxide hydrolase, Lsd19, converts the bisepoxy polyketide intermediate into the tetrahydrofuranyl-tetrahydropyran product. We report the crystal structure of Lsd19 in complex with lasalocid A. The structure unambiguously shows that the C-terminal domain of Lsd19 catalyzes the intriguing anti-Baldwin cyclization. We propose a general mechanism for epoxide selection by ionophore polyether epoxide hydrolases. Epoxide hydrolase-lasalocid a structure provides mechanistic insight into polyether natural product biosynthesis.,Wong FT, Hotta K, Chen X, Fang M, Watanabe K, Kim CY J Am Chem Soc. 2015 Jan 14;137(1):86-9. doi: 10.1021/ja511374k.
