| Research Abstract |
1.Macrocyclization in a peptide and a lipopeptide is occurred at the last step of synthesis and is usually catalyzed by a single C-terminal thioesterase (Te) domain. Arthrofactin synthetase (Arf) from Pseudomonas sp. MIS38 represents a new type of nonribosomal peptide synthetase, containing a unique tandem C-terminal Te domains with dual condensation/epimerization domain. In order to analyze the function of ArfC_Te domains in vivo, site directed mutagenesis was introduced to putative active site residues in ArfC_Te1 and ArfC_Te2. It was found that both Te domains were functional. Peaks corresponding to arthrofactin and its derivatives were completely missing in ArfC_Tel : S89A, ArfC_Tel : S89T, and ArfC_Tel : E26G/F27A mutants. Production of arthrofactin by ArfC_Te2 : S92A, ArfC_Te2 : S92A/D118A, and ArfCΔTe2 was reduced by 95 % without alteration of peptide or β-hydroxy fatty acid structure. These results suggest that Ser89 in ArfC_Tel is essential for the completion of macrocyclizati

on and the release of product cyclic lipopeptide. Glu26 and Phe27 residues are also the member of active site residues in ArfC_Te1.
2.Condensation (C) domains in the nonribosomal peptide synthetases are capable of catalyzing peptide bond formation between two consecutively bound various amino acids. C-domains coincide in frequency with the number of peptide bonds in the product peptide. A phylogenetic approach was used to investigate structural diversity of bacterial C-domains. Phylogenetic trees show that the C-domains are clustered into three functional groups according to the types of substrate donor molecules. They are L-peptidyl donors, D-peptidyl donors, and N-acyl donors. The fact that C-domain structure is not subject to optical configuration of amino acid acceptor molecules supports an idea that the conversion from L to D-form of incorporating amino acid acceptor occurs during or after peptide bond formation. L-peptidyl donors and D-peptidyl donors are suggested to separate before separating the lineage of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in the evolution process. Less
