Biosynthesis of Liposidomycin-like A-90289 Antibiotics Featuring a New Type of Sulfotransferase

Lip reading: The biosynthetic gene cluster for A‐90289, a fatty acid nucleoside antibiotic, was cloned and sequenced. The sulfotransferase LipB is demonstrated to be essential for A‐90289 biosynthesis, and in vitro characterization revealed LipB utilizes p‐nitrophenylsulfate as an aryl sulfate donor...

Description
Summary:Lip reading: The biosynthetic gene cluster for A‐90289, a fatty acid nucleoside antibiotic, was cloned and sequenced. The sulfotransferase LipB is demonstrated to be essential for A‐90289 biosynthesis, and in vitro characterization revealed LipB utilizes p‐nitrophenylsulfate as an aryl sulfate donor and a variety of nonaryl acceptors including caprazamycin A to give the 2′‐O‐sulfated product, A‐90289A.
