Structural highlights
FunctionIPNA_EMENI Isopenicillin N synthase; part of the gene cluster that mediates the biosynthesis of penicillin, the world's most important antibiotic (PubMed:3319778, PubMed:11755401). IpnA catalyzes the cyclization of the tripeptide N-[(5S)-5-amino-5-carboxypentanoyl]-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (LLD-ACV or ACV) to form isopenicillin N (IPN) that contains the beta-lactam nucleus (PubMed:3319778, PubMed:11755401, PubMed:28703303). The penicillin biosynthesis occurs via 3 enzymatic steps, the first corresponding to the production of the tripeptide N-[(5S)-5-amino-5-carboxypentanoyl]-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (LLD-ACV or ACV) by the NRPS acvA. The tripeptide ACV is then cyclized to isopenicillin N (IPN) by the isopenicillin N synthase ipnA that forms the beta-lactam nucleus. Finally, the alpha-aminoadipyl side chain is exchanged for phenylacetic acid by the isopenicillin N acyltransferase penDE to yield penicillin in the peroxisomal matrix (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P08703][1] [2] [3] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedIsopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) is a non-heme iron(ii) oxidase, which catalyses the biosynthesis of isopenicillin N (IPN) from the tripeptide delta-l-alpha-aminoadipoyl-l-cysteinyl-d-valine (lld-ACV) in a remarkable oxidative bicyclisation reaction. The natural substrate for IPNS is the lld-configured tripeptide. lll-ACV is not turned over by the enzyme, but inhibits turnover of the lld-tripeptide. The mechanism by which this inhibition takes place is not fully understood. Recent studies have employed a range of lld-configured depsipeptide substrate analogues in crystallographic studies to probe events preceding beta-lactam closure in the IPNS reaction cycle. Herein, we report the first crystal structure of IPNS in complex with an lll-configured depsipeptide analogue, delta-l-alpha-aminoadipoyl-l-cysteine (1-(R)-carboxy-2-thiomethyl)ethyl ester (lll-ACOmC). This report describes the crystal structure of the IPNS:Fe(ii):lll-ACOmC complex to 2.0 A resolution, and discusses attempts to oxygenate this complex at high pressure in order to probe the mechanism by which lll-configured substrates inhibit IPNS catalysis.
