摘要:	Streptothricins (STNs) are atypical aminoglycosides containing a rare carbamoylated D-gulosamine (D-GulN) moiety, and the antimicrobial activity of STNs has been exploited for crop protection. Herein, the biosynthetic pathway of the carbamoylated D-GulN moiety was delineated. An N-acetyl-D-galactosamine is first attached to the streptolidine lactam by the glycosyltransferse StnG and then epimerized to N-acetyl-D-gulosamine by the putative epimerase StnJ. After carbamoylation by the carbamoyltransferase StnQ, N-acetyl-D-GulN is deacetylated by StnI to furnish the carbamoylated D-GulN moiety. In vitro studies characterized two novel enzymes: StnG is an unprecedented GT-A fold N-glycosyltransferase that glycosylates the imine nitrogen atom of guanidine, and StnI is the first reported N-acetyl-D-GulN deacetylase.
