Cetoniacytone A is a secondary metabolite classified in the family of C7N aminocyclitols which include other natural products such as validamycin A, acarbose, and epoxyquinomicin. [1] Cetoniacytone A was first identified from a culture of Actinomyces sp. (strain Lu 9419), an endosymbiotic Gram-positive bacillus found in the intestines of a rose chafer ( Cetonia aureata ). [2] Preliminary feeding studies with [U-13C3]glycerol identified the core moiety, cetoniacytone, to be derived via the pentose phosphate pathway. Although agar plate diffusion assay studies of cetoniacytone A showed no antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, cetoniacytone A has demonstrated a significant growth inhibitory effect against human cancer cell lines including hepatocellular carcinoma (HEP G2) and breast adenocarcinoma (MCF 7). [2] [3]

Biosynthesis

Feeding experiments conducted by Zeeck and co-workers established the synthesis of Cetoniacytone A to proceed via the pentose phosphate pathway with sedoheptulose-7- phosphate as the key intermediate. [2] Sedoheptulose-7- phosphate first undergoes a cyclization catalyzed by 2-epi-5-epi-valiolone synthase (CetA) yielding 2-epi-5-epi-valiolone. Following the cyclization, 2-epi-5-epi-valiolone epimerase (CetB) results in an inversion of the stereochemistry of the alcohol alpha to the ketone forming 5-epi-valiolone. Next, CetL, a type of oxidoreductase, results in the oxidation of the C-4 hydroxyl group to give 2-keto-5-epi-valiolone followed by a transamination catalyzed by aminotransferases CetM to give 2-amino-5-epi-valiolone. The sequential reactions depicted in the dashed box represent putative pathways that involve oxidoreductase, dehydrogenase, and hypothetical proteins related to the cupin superfamily to yield cetoniacytone B. Lastly, cetoniacytone B is acetylated via an arylamine N-acetyltransferase (CetD) to yield cetoniacytone A. [3]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Calvin cycle</span> Light-independent reactions in photosynthesis

The Calvin cycle,light-independent reactions, bio synthetic phase,dark reactions, or photosynthetic carbon reduction (PCR) cycle of photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen-carrier compounds into glucose. The Calvin cycle is present in all photosynthetic eukaryotes and also many photosynthetic bacteria. In plants, these reactions occur in the stroma, the fluid-filled region of a chloroplast outside the thylakoid membranes. These reactions take the products of light-dependent reactions and perform further chemical processes on them. The Calvin cycle uses the chemical energy of ATP and reducing power of NADPH from the light dependent reactions to produce sugars for the plant to use. These substrates are used in a series of reduction-oxidation reactions to produce sugars in a step-wise process; there is no direct reaction that converts several molecules of CO2 to a sugar. There are three phases to the light-independent reactions, collectively called the Calvin cycle: carboxylation, reduction reactions, and ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) regeneration.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Transketolase</span> Enzyme involved in metabolic pathways

Transketolase is an enzyme that, in humans, is encoded by the TKT gene. It participates in both the pentose phosphate pathway in all organisms and the Calvin cycle of photosynthesis. Transketolase catalyzes two important reactions, which operate in opposite directions in these two pathways. In the first reaction of the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, the cofactor thiamine diphosphate accepts a 2-carbon fragment from a 5-carbon ketose (D-xylulose-5-P), then transfers this fragment to a 5-carbon aldose (D-ribose-5-P) to form a 7-carbon ketose (sedoheptulose-7-P). The abstraction of two carbons from D-xylulose-5-P yields the 3-carbon aldose glyceraldehyde-3-P. In the Calvin cycle, transketolase catalyzes the reverse reaction, the conversion of sedoheptulose-7-P and glyceraldehyde-3-P to pentoses, the aldose D-ribose-5-P and the ketose D-xylulose-5-P.

The aminocyclitols are compounds related to cyclitols. They possess features of relative and absolute configuration that are characteristic of their class and have been extensively studied; but these features are not clearly displayed by general methods of stereochemical nomenclature, so that special methods of specifying their configuration are justified and have long been used. In other than stereochemical respects, their nomenclature should follow the general rules of organic chemistry.
