Carboxymethylproline synthase from Pectobacterium carotorova: a multifaceted member of the crotonase superfamily.

The simplest carbapenem antibiotic, (5R)-carbapen-2-em-3-carboxylic acid, is biosynthesized from primary metabolites in Pectobacterium carotorova by the action of three enzymes, carboxymethylproline synthase (hereafter named CarB), carbapenam synthetase, and carbapenem synthase. CarB, a member of the crotonase superfamily, catalyzes the formation of (2S,5S)-5-carboxymethylproline from malonyl-CoA and l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate. In this study we show that, in addition, CarB catalyzes the independent decarboxylation of malonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA and the hydrolysis of CoA esters such as acetyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA. The steady-state rate constants for these reactions are reported. We have identified the intermediates in the CarB reactions with l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate and malonyl-CoA or methylmalonyl-CoA as the CoA esters of (2S,5S)-5-carboxymethylproline and (2S,5S)-6-methyl-5-carboxymethylproline, respectively. The data provided indicate that these intermediates partition between completing turnover and dissociating from the enzyme. On the basis of the steady-state rate constants measured for the CarB-catalyzed hydrolysis of synthetic (2S,5S)-5-carboxymethylprolyl-CoA and for the CarB reaction with malonyl-CoA and l-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, we have calculated the rate constants for each step of these reactions. The results identify CarB as a particularly interesting member of the crotonase superfamily that combines in one net reaction three activities of this superfamily, decarboxylation, C-C bond formation, and CoA ester hydrolysis. << Less

Carboxymethylproline synthase (CarB) catalyzes the committed step in the biosynthesis of (R)-1-carbapen-2-em-3-carboxylate, the simplest member of the carbapenem family of beta-lactam antibiotics, some of which are used clinically. CarB displays sequence homology with members of the crotonase family including enoyl-CoA hydratase (crotonase) and methylmalonyl-CoA decarboxylase. The CarB reaction has been proposed to comprise condensation of acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) and glutamate semi-aldehyde to give (2S,5S)-carboxymethylproline ((2S,5S)-CMP). (2S,5S)-CMP is then cyclized in an ATP-driven reaction catalyzed by CarA to give a carbapenam, which is subsequently epimerized and desaturated to give a carbapenem in a CarC-mediated reaction. Here we report the purification of recombinant CarB and that it exists predominantly in a trimeric form as do other members of the crotonase family. AcCoA was not found to be a substrate for CarB. Instead malonyl-CoA was found to be a substrate, efficiently producing (2S,5S)-CMP in the presence of glutamate semi-aldehyde. In the absence of glutamate semi-aldehyde, mass spectrometric analysis indicated that CarB catalyzed the decarboxylation of malonyl-CoA to AcCoA. The reactions of CarB, CarA, and CarC were coupled in vitro demonstrating the viability of malonyl-CoA as a carbapenem precursor. CarB was also shown to accept methylmalonyl CoA as a substrate to form 6-methyl-(2S,5S)CMP, which in turn is a substrate for CarA. The implications of the results for the biosynthesis of both carbapenem-3-carboxylate and C-2/C-6-substituted carbapenems, such as thienamycin, are discussed. << Less
