Elucidation of the Streptomyces coelicolor pathway to 4-methoxy-2,2′-bipyrrole-5-carboxaldehyde, an intermediate in prodiginine biosynthesis

Abstract

The biosynthetic pathway to 4-methoxy-2,2′-bipyrrole-5-carboxaldehyde (MBC), a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of prodiginine antibiotics in Streptomyces coelicolor, has been elucidated using a combination of gene replacements and feeding experiments with chemically synthesised MBC and a synthetic analogue of a pathway intermediate.
