This is followed by pathway-specific enzymatic tailoring steps, occasionally including rare oxidative rearrangements of the carbon skeleton, as exemplified by the rishirilides. In this study, we investigate RslO9, a flavin-dependent tailoring key enzyme of rishirilide biosynthesis, previously hypothesized to facilitate a lactone-forming Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of the rishirilide naphthoquinone core and subsequent intramolecular aldol condensation. Through detailed investigation of RslO9's mechanism, structural features, and substrate scope, we unexpectedly found that the naphthoquinone moiety of the non-natural substrate lapachol undergoes hydroxylation followed by a benzilic acid rearrangement, producing the Hooker intermediate-a hallmark of the intricate Hooker oxidation. Our data support a similar alkyl migration mechanism for RslO9's native substrate, upending its prior classification as a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase and challenging the proposed role of related enzymes while also providing a novel framework for exploring their catalytic roles.
