2.5.1.34 | evolution | 4-DMATS follows a mechanism that involves initial ion pair formation followed by a reverse prenylation at the nucleophilic C-3 position. Generation of the C-4 normal prenylated intermediate and deprotonation rearomatizes the indole ring. The enzyme tryprostatin B synthase (FtmPT1) catalyzes the normal C-2 prenylation of the indole ring in brevianamide F (cyclo-L-Trp-L-Pro). It shares high structural homology with 4-DMATS, and catalyzes a reaction in favor of an initial C-3 prenylation (either normal or reverse) followed by carbo cation rearrangements to give product. The concept of a common intermediate that partitions to different products via rearrangements can help to explain how these evolutionarily related enzymes can prenylate different positions on the indole ring | Aspergillus fumigatus |
