Molecular insights into the endoperoxide formation by Fe(II)/α-KG-dependent oxygenase NvfI

Many endoperoxide-containing natural products have been isolated, but the biosynthesis of the endoperoxides remains unclear. Here, the authors report the structural and functional analysis of the NvfI endoperoxidase that catalyzes the formation of fumigatonoid A in the biosynthesis of novofumigatoni...

Sumario:Many endoperoxide-containing natural products have been isolated, but the biosynthesis of the endoperoxides remains unclear. Here, the authors report the structural and functional analysis of the NvfI endoperoxidase that catalyzes the formation of fumigatonoid A in the biosynthesis of novofumigatonin, and show that it does not employ tyrosyl radical in the reaction.
