Abstract
This invention provides genes and their encoded proteins, involved in the biosynthesis of farnesyl dibenzodiazepinones, including ECO-04601. The invention relates to expression vectors comprising the genes and to host cell transformed with these vectors. The invention further relates to methods of producing farnesyl dibenzodiazepinone compounds using the genes and proteins of the invention, for example, involving expression of biosynthetic pathway genes in transformed host cells.
Claims
-
An isolated polypeptide selected from the group consisting of:
a) a polypeptide comprising amino acids 1-438 of SEQ ID NO: 48:
b) a polypeptide having at least 95% identity to a polypeptide comprising amino acids 1-438 of SEQ ID NO: 48 and having adenylating amide synthetase activity; and
c) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide, the complement of which hybridizes under stringent hybridization conditions to a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising amino acids 1-438 of SEQ ID NO: 48, wherein said stringent hybridization conditions comprise: (i) hybridization in 5×SCC at 65° C. for 16 hours, (ii) two washes in 2×SSC at room temperature for 15 minutes for each wash, and (iii) two washes in 0.5×SSC at 65° C. for 20 minutes for each wash.
- The isolated polypeptide of claim 1, wherein said polypeptide comprises amino acids 1-438 of SEQ ID NO: 48.
- The isolated polypeptide of claim 1, wherein said polypeptide consist of amino acids 1-438 of SEQ ID NO: 48.
- The isolated polypeptide of claim 1, wherein said polypeptide b) has at least 99% identity to a polypeptide comprising amino acids 1-438 of SEQ ID NO: 48.
