Biosynthesis of agglomerin A: stereospecific incorporation of pro-R- and pro-S-hydrogens at sn-C-3 of glycerol into the branched C(3) moiety.
    Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 2004, Feb-09, Volume: 14, Issue:3

    The biosynthetic origin of the C(3) branched unit of agglomerin A has been investigated. Feeding of sn-(3R)- and sn-(3S)-[3-(2)H]glycerols to Enterobacter agglomerans PB-6042 followed by (2)H NMR analysis of the resulting agglomerin A revealed that pro-R and pro-S hydrogens at sn-C-3 of glycerol were incorporated stereospecifically into 5E and 5Z hydrogens of agglomerin A, respectively. These results imply that the immediate precursor of the C(3) branched unit is not pyruvate, but 1,3-bisphosphoglyceric acid or its biological equivalent.
