The azinomycins are a family of aziridine-containing antitumor antibiotics and represent a treasure trove of biosynthetic reactions. The formation of the azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane ring and functionalization of this ring system remain the least understo

The biosynthesis of the azabicyclic ring system of the azinomycin family of antitumor agents represents the “crown jewel” of the pathway and is a complex process involving at least 14 enzymatic steps. This study reports on the first biosynthetic

Experiments reveal that the metabolic precursor aminoacetone is a key intermediate in the production of the antitumor agent azinomycin A relative to the structurally and functionally related agent, azinomycin B. Azinomycin A and B arise through bifur

Azinomycin B is an environmental DNA crosslinking agent produced by the soil microorganism Streptomyces sahachiroi. While the agent displays potent cytotoxic activities against leukemic cell lines and animal mouse models, the lack of a consistent sup

SummaryStudies on the mechanism of action of the antitumor agent azinomycin B in vitro suggest that the drug elicits its lethal effects by the formation of interstrand crosslinks within the major groove of DNA. Here, we demonstrate the biological eff

[reaction: see text] Azinomycins have potential therapeutic value as antitumor agents; however, their biosynthesis is poorly understood. Here, we provide the first demonstration of a protein cell-free system capable of supporting complete in vitro bi

Streptomyces sahachiroi whole cell feeding experiments, utilizing putative precursors labeled with stable isotopes, established that the epoxide unit of the DNA cross-linked agents, azinomycin A and B, proceeds via a valine-dependent pathway and that
