The enzyme from E. coli is involved in the Microcin C (McC) maturation pathway.
This Trojan horse antibiotic McC consists of a heptapeptide attached to adenosine through a phosphoramidate linkage. α -carboxyl group linked to AMP via phosphoramidate bond. Two enzymes, MccE and MccD, act in tandem to add to the McC phosphate an aminopropyl moiety (this increases the biological activity by ∼ 10-fold).
Specifically, MccD transfers a 3-amino-3-carboxypropyl group S-adenosyl methionine onto the phosphate of the adenylated heptapeptide. Subsequently, MccE removes the carboxyl group,
yielding mature McC. |
