The phosphoglycolipid antibiotic moenomycin directly blocks bacterial cell-wall biosynthesis by inhibiting peptidoglycan glycosyltransferases.[1] The enzyme MoeO5, encoded by the moe gene cluster 1 in Streptomyces ghanaensis, catalyzes the initial step of moenomycin production, in which the C15-hydrocarbon moiety of farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) is transferred to the 2-hydroxy group of 3-phosphoglycerate (3PG), forming an ether bond (Scheme 1).[2] The reaction is similar to that catalyzed by geranylgeranylglyceryl phosphate synthase (GGGPS) for synthesizing archaea-type phospholipids.[3] However, in contrast to the enzyme GGGPS, which gives products with retained all-trans configuration of the isoprenyl chain, the enzyme MoeO5 leads to a trans-to-cis isomerization at the C2= C3 double bond of the transferred farnesyl group.[4] The crystal structures of the proteins GGGPS and the bacterial homologue PcrB reveal a triosephosphate isomerase (TIM)-barrel fold, which had not been observed previously in prenyltransferases.[3, 5] The sequences of GGGPS and PcrB share 35% amino acid identity, but MoeO5 shares only 10% identity with both enzymes (Figure S1 in the Supporting Information). Herein we report the X-ray crystallographic structures of MoeO5 bound to the product 2-(Z, E)-farnesyl-3-phosphoglycerate (FPG), to the substrate analogue farnesyl thiopyrophosphate (FsPP), and to magnesium (Mg2+) and pyrophosphate (PPi); together with additional biochemical and bioinformatics results, these structures shed light on the possible mechanisms of action of this unusual enzyme.Molecular-replacement approaches to determine the structure of MoeO5 by using GGGPS and PcrB as search models were not successful, thereby reflecting perhaps the significant variations in the protein sequences. Because MoeO5 contains no Cys residue, to solve the structure by using multiple isomorphous replacement (MIR), we produced the mutant H97C for efficient preparation of mercurybased MIR derivatives (Table S1 in the Supporting Information). The other structures were solved by molecular replacement (Figure S2 in the Supporting Information and Table 1; see the Supporting Information for details). MoeO5 crystallizes as a homodimer (FigureS3 and TableS2 in the Supporting Information). The dimer interface buries 1200 2, which is more than 10% surface area, on each monomer and mainly involves hydrophobic residues in helices a4 and a5. The cis-peptide of Phe140–Pro141 binds to a Mg2+ at the molecular dyad (Figure S3 in the Supporting Information). These helices also mediate dimerization in GGGPS and PcrB, but in MoeO5 one of the TIM barrels is rotated by 1808 (Figure S4 in the Supporting Information). A more detailed description of the protein structure as well as of the bound ligands can be found in the Supporting Information. Despite its Ca root-mean-square deviation (rmsd) of about 2.0 from the GGGPS and PcrB monomers (Figure S5 in the Supporting Information), the similar protein fold with a connecting loop (denoted l3) between strands b3 and b4 clearly places MoeO5 among this new class of TIM-barrel prenyltransferases.
