Crystal structure of fused docking domains from PikAIII and PikAIV of the pikromycin polyketide synthase
Structural highlights
FunctionPIKA4_STRVZ Involved in the biosynthesis of 12- and 14-membered ring macrolactone antibiotics such as methymycin and neomethymycin, and pikromycin and narbomycin, respectively. Component of the pikromycin PKS which catalyzes the biosynthesis of both precursors 10-deoxymethynolide (12-membered ring macrolactone) and narbonolide (14-membered ring macrolactone). Chain elongation through PikAI, PikAII and PikAIII followed by thioesterase catalyzed termination results in the production of 10-deoxymethynolide, while continued elongation through PikAIV, followed by thioesterase (TE) catalyzed cyclization results in the biosynthesis of the narbonolide. The thioesterase can use a series of diketide-N-acetylcysteamine (SNAC) thioesters, but has a strong preference for the 2-methyl-3-ketopentanoyl-SNAC over the stereoisomers of 2-methyl-3-hydroxyacyl-SNAC (PubMed:12379101, PubMed:12733905).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] PIKA3_STRVZ Involved in the biosynthesis of 12- and 14-membered ring macrolactone antibiotics such as methymycin and neomethymycin, and pikromycin and narbomycin, respectively.

The synthesis of these compounds occurs in a processive fashion along a large multiprotein complex. Transfer of the acyl intermediate across interpolypeptide junctions is mediated, at least in large part, by N- and C-terminal docking domains. We report here a comprehensive analysis of the binding affinity and selectivity for the complete set of discrete docking domain pairs in the pikromycin and erythromycin PKS systems. Despite disconnection from their parent module, each cognate pair of docking domains retained exquisite binding selectivity. Further insights were obtained by X-ray crystallographic analysis of the PikAIII/PikAIV docking domain interface. This new information revealed a series of key interacting residues that enabled development of a structural model for the recently proposed H2-T2 class of polypeptides involved in PKS intermodular molecular recognition.
