Sorbicillinoids biosynthesis requires the action of two PKSs (PubMed:25580210). SorA iteratively combines three acetyl units and the growing chain is modified by the ketoacyl reductase subunit, and optional by the enoyl reductase subunit in the second cycle (PubMed:25580210). The polyketide is then handed over to the PKS SorB, which adds three more acetyl units, and two methyl groups (PubMed:25580210). SorB releases an aldehyde, which undergoes spontaneous cyclization resulting in the formation of sorbicillin or 2',3'-dihydrosorbicillin (PubMed:25580210). The monooxygenase sorC oxidizes sorbicillin and 2',3'-dihydrosorbicillin to 2',3'-dihydrosorbicillinol and sorbicillinol, respectively (PubMed:28618182). The oxidoreductase sorD further converts sorbicillinol into oxosorbicillinol (PubMed:28618182). Sorbicillinol is the building block for the other sorbicillinoids such as disorbicillinol, bisvertinolon, and dihydrobisvertinolone (By similarity).[UniProtKB:G0R6T0] Publication Abstract from PubMed Sorbicillinoids are yellow secondary metabolites synthesized through an elegant combination of enzymatic and spontaneous biochemical processes. The flavin-dependent monooxygenase SorC and oxidase SorD are crucial in this interplay, enabling the generation of a diverse array of functionally complex sorbicillinoids. By solving the crystal structures of SorC and SorD from Penicillium chrysogenum with sorbicillin bound in the active site, we describe the catalytically active binding conformations, crucial for attaining enantioselective and stereoselective control in these enzymatic reactions. The structure of SorC was resolved with the cofactor FAD in its out state, which allowed us to identify key residues that modulate flavin mobility and other conformational changes. Catalytic residues of SorC were also confirmed by detailed characterization of wild-type and several SorC variants. Meanwhile, using a CRISPR/Cas9-based multicopy-genome integration system, we could heterologously express the flavin-dependent oxidase SorD from P. chrysogenum in Aspergillus niger with high yields and purity. This allowed us to obtain the crystal structure of SorD with sorbicillin bound in a viable catalytic conformation. Structural analysis of the obtained complex provided insights into the substrate binding pose and highlighted potentially critical active site residues. Ultimately, having both SorC and SorD at our disposal enabled us to investigate their functions and interplays in the biosynthesis of a vast array of functionally complex sorbicillinoids.
