Characterization of the N-methyltransferases involved in the biosynthesis of toxoflavin, fervenulin and reumycin from Streptomyces hiroshimensis ATCC53615.
Toxoflavin (1), fervenulin (2), and reumycin (3), known to be produced by plant pathogen Burkholderia glumae BGR1, are structurally related 7-azapteridine antibiotics. Previous biosynthetic studies revealed that N-methyltransferase ToxA from B. glumae BGR1 catalyzed the sequential methylation at N6 and N1 in pyrimido[5,4-e]-as-triazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione (4) to generate 1. However, the N8 methylation of 4 in the biosynthesis of fervenulin remains unclear. To explore the N-methyltransferases required for the biosynthesis of 1 and 2, we identified and characterized the fervenulin and toxoflavin biosynthetic gene clusters in S. hiroshimensis ATCC53615. On the basis of the structures of intermediates accumulated from the four N-methyltransferase gene inactivation mutants and systematic enzymatic methylation reactions, the tailoring steps for the methylation order in the biosynthesis of 1 and 2 were proposed. The N-methylation order and routes for the biosynthesis of fervenulin and toxoflavin in S. hiroshimensis are more complex and represent an obvious departure from those in B. glumae BGR1.

[Study of the stability of pyrimido-[5,4-e]-1,2,4-triazine antibiotics in acid-base media by NMR spectroscopy].
A comparative study of the NMR 1H and 13C spectra of reumycin, fervenulin and xanthothricin in aqueous acid-base media showed that at pH or pD ranging from 8.0 to 1.0 the antibiotics were chemically stable. By the ratio of the 1H and 13C chemical shifts of reumycin at pH 4.0-10.0 the pKa values of this antibiotic were determined: 6.7 in aqueous (D2O) solution and 8.76 in dimethylsulfoxide media. Alkalization of the solutions of reumycin (pH 12.0), fervenulin (pH 9.0) and xanthothricin (pH 8.0) resulted in irreversible chemical transformation of the antibiotics. The analysis of the chemical shifts in the PMR spectra of the transformation products revealed transformation of the uracil ring in reumycin and uracil and triazine rings in fervenulin and xanthothricin. Alkalization of the xanthothricin solutions resulted also in demethylation with formation of reumycin.
