Abstract
12-deoxy-nogalonic acid oxygenase (SnoaB) catalyzes the oxygenation of 12-deoxy-nogalonic acid at position 12 to yield nogalonic acid, which is one of the steps in the biosynthesis of the polyketide nogalamycin in Streptomyces nogalater. SnoaB belongs to a family of small cofactor-free oxygenases which carry out oxygenation reactions without the aid of any prosthetic group, cofactor or metal ion. Recombinant SnoaB was crystallized in space group P2(1)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = 58.8, b = 114.1, c = 49.5 angstrom, and these crystals diffracted to 2.4 angstrom resolution. Recombinant SnoaB does not contain any methionine residues and three double mutants were designed and produced for the preparation of selenomethionine-substituted samples. The selenomethionine-substituted mutant F40M/L89M crystallized in the same space group as the native enzyme.
