Abstract:
:The simplest carbapenem antibiotic, (5R)-carbapen-2-em-3-carboxylic acid, is biosynthesized from primary metabolites in Pectobacterium carotorova by the action of three enzymes, carboxymethylproline synthase (hereafter named CarB), carbapenam synthetase, and carbapenem synthase. CarB, a member of the crotonase superfamily, catalyzes the formation of (2S,5S)-5-carboxymethylproline from malonyl-CoA and l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate. In this study we show that, in addition, CarB catalyzes the independent decarboxylation of malonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA and the hydrolysis of CoA esters such as acetyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA. The steady-state rate constants for these reactions are reported. We have identified the intermediates in the CarB reactions with l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate and malonyl-CoA or methylmalonyl-CoA as the CoA esters of (2S,5S)-5-carboxymethylproline and (2S,5S)-6-methyl-5-carboxymethylproline, respectively. The data provided indicate that these intermediates partition between completing turnover and dissociating from the enzyme. On the basis of the steady-state rate constants measured for the CarB-catalyzed hydrolysis of synthetic (2S,5S)-5-carboxymethylprolyl-CoA and for the CarB reaction with malonyl-CoA and l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, we have calculated the rate constants for each step of these reactions. The results identify CarB as a particularly interesting member of the crotonase superfamily that combines in one net reaction three activities of this superfamily, decarboxylation, C-C bond formation, and CoA ester hydrolysis.
