Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9933994A1] Three-dimensional crystal structure(s) of deacetoxycephalosporin C synthase (DAOCS) are described. The X-ray co-ordinates provide precise 3-dimensional information of amino acids within the structure of DAOCS. Some of these are in complexes with iron and/or substrates. Information from the structures is used to modify enzymes of the cephalosporin biosynthesis pathway including DAOCS, deacetylcephalosporin C synthase DAOC/DACS, such that they accept unnatural substrates (e.g. penicillins G, V) in order to improve the production of beta-lactam antibiotics. The structures may be used to predict the structures of other 2-oxoglutarate dependent enzymes, thereby allowing the design of inhibitors, and new catalysts for the production of e.g. oxidised amino acids/peptides. Specific modifications of amino acid residues are proposed and exemplified.
