Published: March 2019

Controlled halogenation of chemically versatile substrates is difficult to achieve. Here we describe a unique flavin-dependent halogenase, PltM, which is capable of utilizing a wide range of halides for installation on a diverse array of phenolic compounds, including FDA-approved drugs and natural products, such as terbutaline, fenoterol, resveratrol, and catechin. Crystal structures of PltM in complex with phloroglucinol and FAD in different states yield insight into substrate recognition and the FAD recycling mechanism of this halogenase.

A novel halogenase gene (halB) was isolated from a cosmid library of the pentachloropseudilin producer Actinoplanes sp. ATCC 33002. The halogenase has high identity (55%) to the flavin-dependent monodechloroaminopyrrolnitrin-3 halogenase from pyrrolnitrin biosynthesis and to the halogenases PltM and PltA (35% and 28%, respectively) involved in pyoluteorin biosynthesis.

Characterization of the pyoluteorin biosynthetic gene cluster of Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf-5.

J Bacteriol

April 1999

Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Corvallis, Oregon 97330, USA.

Ten genes (plt) required for the biosynthesis of pyoluteorin, an antifungal compound composed of a bichlorinated pyrrole linked to a resorcinol moiety, were identified within a 24-kb genomic region of Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf-5. The deduced amino acid sequences of eight plt genes were similar to the amino acid sequences of genes with known biosynthetic functions, including type I polyketide synthases (pltB, pltC), an acyl coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) dehydrogenase (pltE), an acyl-CoA synthetase (pltF), a thioesterase (pltG), and three halogenases (pltA, pltD, and pltM). Insertions of the transposon Tn5 or Tn3-nice or a kanamycin resistance gene in each of these genes abolished pyoluteorin production by Pf-5.
