AbstractNature forms S-S bonds by oxidizing two sulfhydryl groups, and no enzyme installing an intact hydropersulfide (-SSH) group into a natural product has been identified to date. The leinamycin (LNM) family of natural products features intact S-S bonds, and previously we reported an SH domain (LnmJ-SH) within the LNM hybrid nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS)-polyketide synthase (PKS) assembly line as a cysteine lyase that plays a role in sulfur incorporation. Here we report the characterization of an S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-dependent hydropersulfide methyltransferase (GnmP) for guangnanmycin (GNM) biosynthesis, discovery of hydropersulfides as the nascent products of the GNM and LNM hybrid NRPS-PKS assembly lines, and revelation of three SH domains (GnmT-SH, LnmJ-SH, and WsmR-SH) within the GNM, LNM, and weishanmycin (WSM) hybrid NRPS-PKS assembly lines as thiocysteine lyases. Based on these findings, we propose a biosynthetic model for the LNM family of natural products, featuring thiocysteine lyases as PKS domains that directly install a -SSH group into the GNM, LNM, or WSM polyketide scaffold. Genome mining reveals that SH domains are widespread in Nature, extending beyond the LNM family of natural products. The SH domains could also be leveraged as biocatalysts to install an -SSH group into other biologically relevant scaffolds.

Mycobacteriophage R1 was originally isolated from a lysogenic culture of M. butyricum. The virus was propagated on a leucine-requiring derivative of M. smegmatis, 607 leu−, isolated by nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis of typestrain ATCC 607. Growth was accomplished in a minimal medium containing glycerol and glucose as carbon source and enriched by the addition of 80 μg/ ml L-leucine. Bacteria in early logarithmic growth phase were infected with virus at a multiplicity of 5, and incubated with aeration for 8 hours. The partially lysed suspension was diluted 1:10 in growth medium and incubated for a further 8 hours. This permitted stationary phase cells to re-enter logarithmic growth and resulted in complete lysis of the culture.
