The violacein biosynthetic enzyme VioE shares a fold with lipoprotein transporter proteins.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 7 Mar 2008

Ryan Katherine S, Balibar Carl J, Turo Kaitlyn E, Walsh Christopher T, Drennan Catherine L

Abstract excerpt

VioE, an unusual enzyme with no characterized homologues, plays a key role in the biosynthesis of violacein, a purple pigment with antibacterial and cytotoxic properties. Without bound cofactors or metals, VioE, from the bacterium Chromobacterium violaceum, mediates a 1,2 shift of an indole ring...
