Bacterial aromatic polyketides are usually biosynthesized by the type II polyketide synthase (PKS-II) system. Advances in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing, informatics, and biotechnologies have broadened opportunities for the discovery of aromatic polyketides. Meanwhile, metagenomics is a biotechnology that has been considered as a promising approach for the discovery of novel natural products from uncultured bacteria. Here, we cloned a type II polyketide biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) from the soil metagenome, and the heterologous expression of this gene cluster in Streptomyces coelicolor M1146 resulted in the production of three anthraquinones, two of which (coelulatins 2 and 3) had special hydroxymethyl and methyloxymethyl modifications at C2 of the polyketide scaffold. Gene deletion and in vitro biochemical characterization indicated that the HemN-like radical S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) enzyme CoeI exhibits methylation and is involved in C2 modification. |
