Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
M207G site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant enzyme efficiently catalyzes the successive condensation of eight molecules of malonyl-CoA to produce 2,7-dihydroxy-5-[(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-6-yl)methyl]-2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-chromen-4-one and 2,7-dihydroxy-5-[(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-6-yl)methyl]-5-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-chromen-4-one, i.e. SEK4 and SEK4b. The pentaketide-forming pentaketide chromone synthase is thus functionally transformed into an octaketide-producing enzyme by the single amino-acid substitution Aloe arborescens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution pentaketide chromone synthase is a plant-specific type III polyketide synthase that belongs to the chalcone synthase superfamily of type III polyketide synthases Aloe arborescens
physiological function the plant-specific type III polyketide synthase that produces 5,7-dihydroxy-2-methylchromone from five molecules of malonyl-CoA. The aromatic pentaketide is a biosynthetic precursor of the anti-asthmatic furochromones kehellin and visnagin Aloe arborescens
