Isonitrile lipopeptides (INLPs) are known to be related to the virulence of pathogenic mycobacteria by mediating metal transport, but their biosynthesis remains obscure. In this work, we use in vitro biochemical assays, site-directed mutagenesis, chemical synthesis, and spectroscopy techniques to scrutinize the activity of core enzymes required for INLP biosynthesis in mycobacteria. Compared to environmentalStreptomyces, pathogenicMycobacteriumemploy a similar chemical logic and enzymatic machinery in INLP biosynthesis, differing mainly in the fatty-acyl chain length, which is controlled by multiple enzymes in the pathway. Our in-depth study on the non-heme iron(II) and α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase for isonitrile generation, including Rv0097 fromMycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb), demonstrates that it recognizes a free-standing small molecule substrate, different from the recent hypothesis that a carrier protein is required for Rv0097 inMtb. A key residue in Rv0097 is further identified to dictate the varied fatty-acyl chain length specificity betweenStreptomycesandMycobacterium.
