As a major class of aromatic polyketide natural products, the angucyclines display significant diversity in structure and bioactivity. Like most other bacterial aromatic polyketides, angucyclines are derived from polyketide chains assembled by the minimal type II polyketide synthases, which consist of a ketosynthase α and β heterodimer complex and a cognate acyl carrier protein.[1] The polyketide chains are then modified by accessory enzymes (ketoreductase and cyclase/aromatase) to generate the key angucycline intermediates, UWM6 (1) or its analogues.[2, 3] Subsequent modification steps catalyzed by tailoring enzymes afford the hundreds of structurally diverse angucyclines that have been identified.[4] A large number of different kinds of enzymes are involved in the tailoring steps of angucyclines. Investigation of these enzymes will help us to understand the mechanism of biosynthetic assembly of these molecules, and this knowledge is required for combinatorial engineering to produce novel angucyclines. Among all the tailoring steps, C12 monooxygenation is remarkable in that it takes place in all angucycline biosynthetic pathways,[4] and investigation of the enzyme catalyzing this reaction should shed significant light on the biosyntheses of the whole angucycline family.The first characterized enzyme catalyzing angucycline C12 monooxygenation is JadH from jadomycin (JD) pathway. JD refers to a series of angucycline molecules with a unique pentacyclic benz [b] oxazolophenanthridine skeleton.[5–7] They exhibit good bioactivity against Gram-positive bacteria, including the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.[8] Recently, JD B (2; Scheme 1) was shown to inhibit the activity of Aurora-B kinase.[9] The jad gene cluster was cloned from Streptomyces venezuelae ISP5230 in the early 1990s, and the JD biosynthetic pathway has been thoroughly analyzed.[10–12] JadH was proposed to catalyze the C12 monooxygenation and 4a, 12b-dehydration from mainly in vivo investigations.[13, 14] It was also shown to convert 2, 3-dehydro-UWM6 (3) to dehydrorabelomycin (4) and 1 to rabelomycin (5) in vitro (Scheme 2).[13] Studies
