Abstract: Saframycin A is a potent antitumor antibiotic having unique pentacyclic tetrahydroisoquinoline scaffold. We found that the single nonribosomal peptide synthetase SfmC catalyzes a seven-step transformation from readily synthesized dipeptidyl substrates with long acyl chains into a complex saframycin scaffold. Based on a series of enzymatic reactions, we propose a detailed mechanism involving the reduction of various peptidyl thioesters by an identical R-domain followed by C-domain-mediated Pictet-Spengler reactions in an iterative manner.
