Identification and characterization of a tyramine-glutamate ligase (MfnD) involved in methanofuran biosynthesis.

Biochemistry - 7 Oct 2014

Wang Yu, Xu Huimin, Harich Kim C, White Robert H

Abstract excerpt

Methanofuran is the first in a series of coenzymes involved in the reduction of carbon dioxide to methane. All methanofuran structural variants contain a basic core structure of 4-[N-(γ-l-glutamyl-γ-l-glutamyl)-p-(β-aminoethyl)phenoxymethyl]-2-(aminomethyl)furan (APMF-(Glu)2) with different attached side chains depending on the source organism. Recently, we discovered the biosynthetic route for the production of...
