Tabtoxin is a β-lactam ring-containing phytotoxin produced by a plant pathogenicPseudomonasspecies. Here, we describe the early stages of tabtoxin biosynthesis, involving aC-methylation reaction catalyzed by theS-adenosyl-l-methionine-dependent methyltransferase TblA as the initial step for the β-lactam construction. Gene deletion andin vitrobiochemical assays demonstrated that the Gcn5-relatedN-acetyltransferase domain of TblD catalyzes the acetylation of the α-amino group of 5-methyl-l-lysine. This establishment of the early reaction steps lays the foundation for characterizing unique β-lactam biosynthesis.
