| Abstract | The aurachins are a family of secondary metabolites, with the main members aurachin A, B, C, and D, produced by the myxobacteriumStigmatella aurantiacaSg a15. These isoprenoid quinoline alkaloids are classified as A-type or C-type aurachins according to the position of the farnesyl residue either at C4 or C3 of the quinoline core, respectively. Previous feeding studies revealed that the C-type aurachins are converted to A-type aurachins by late stage tailoring reactions. While the core gene cluster coding for the functionalities required for the biosynthesis of the basic structure aurachin D is known, neither of the genes encoding for the successively acting tailoring enzymes was known up to date, which was assumed to be due to a split cluster organisation. Here we describe the identification of a total of five genes, located upstream of the aurachin core cluster and at additional two loci elsewhere in the genome, encoding for the aforementioned functionalities. The generation and evaluation of respective inactivation mutants of S. aurantiacaSg a15 allowed for the first time to propose an exhaustive model for aurachin biosynthesis. One of the deduced biosynthetic transformations corresponds to a pinacol rearrangement, an unprecedented tailoring reaction in secondary metabolite biosynthesis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
