A multi-iron enzyme installs copper-binding oxazolone/thioamide pairs on a nontypeable virulence factor. | LitMetric

The multinuclear nonheme iron-dependent oxidases (MNIOs) are a rapidly growing family of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of ribosomally synthesized, posttranslationally modified peptide natural products (RiPPs). Recently, a secreted virulence factor from nontypeable (NTHi) was found to be expressed from an operon, which we designate the operon, that also encodes an MNIO. Here, we show by Mössbauer spectroscopy that the MNIO HvfB contains a triiron cofactor. We demonstrate that HvfB works together with HvfC [a RiPP recognition element (RRE)-containing partner protein] to perform six posttranslational modifications of cysteine residues on the virulence factor precursor peptide HvfA. Structural characterization by tandem mass spectrometry and NMR shows that these six cysteine residues are converted to oxazolone and thioamide pairs, similar to those found in the RiPP methanobactin. Like methanobactin, the mature virulence factor, which we name oxazolin, uses these modified residues to coordinate Cu(I) ions. Considering the necessity of oxazolin for host cell invasion by NTHi, these findings point to a key role for copper during NTHi infection. Furthermore, oxazolin and its biosynthetic pathway represent a potential therapeutic target for NTHi.
