Abstract:
Ribosomally synthesised and post translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) are a diverse class of industrially-important and clinically-relevant natural products. Reprogramming the biosynthesis of RiPPs can provide an understanding of their biosynthesis, increases in their yield, and compound derivatives. In this thesis, two RiPP biosynthetic pathways are reprogrammed to achieve these aims. Bottromycin is a potent antibiotic RiPP, however it is produced in low yields by its native producer and it is rapidly hydrolysed in blood plasma. It was hypothesised that the bottromycin gene cluster could

Abstract:
Pleuromutilin has potential as a next-generation antibiotic, and many semi-synthetic pleuromutilin derivatives have been developed. Recently, characterization of individual enzymatic steps involved in the production of pleuromutilin has been carried out. A linear pathway of pleuromutilin biosynthesis was established; however, there is a possibility of alternative or shunt pathways. Thus, the first part of this thesis aimed to investigate if any other possible routes could lead to the biosynthesis of pleuromutilin. Two alternative pathways were identified from the expression of various combinat

Abstract:
The biochemical pathways for the formation of the unusual amino acids found in virginiamycin M₁ and A33853 were investigated. Specifically tritiated and carbon 14 labeled serines were incorporated into virginiamycin M₁. (2S)-serine and (2S,3R)-[3-³H] serine were found to be precursors, thus giving evidence of stereochemical control in the formation of the oxazole moiety. This information allowed for postulation of a ring closure pathway. Stereochemical investigations were also carried out on the dehydroproline unit and it was shown that both (R) and (S) prolines were incorporated into the dehy

Calcium Dependent Antibiotic (CDA), is a nonribosomal lipopeptide antibiotic from Streptomyces coelicolor. It is an undecapeptide with an unusual N-terminal 2,3-epoxyhexanoyl fatty acid side chain.

Abstract:
An important branchpoint of mammalian sphingolipid metabolism occurs at the step where ceramides are glycosylated to glucosylceramide (GlcCer) versus galactosylceramide (GalCer), which are precursors of all mammalian glycosphingolipids. Relatively few studies have focused on this branchpoint because these monohexosylceramides are somewhat difficult to resolve chromatographically and because molecular biology tools have only recently become available to follow expression of these genes. The goal of this thesis is to better understand the mechanisms of cell regulation determining galactosylcer

Abstract:
Streptomyces subrutilus ATCC 27467, when grown on a glucosecontaining soyabean medium, produces both 1-deoxymannonojirimycin (DMJ) and 1-deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) in its culture medium. When 1- or 2-[2H]-D-glucose is used, the deuterium label appears at C6 in both alkaloids and the labelling pattern suggests that the first step in the biosynthesis of both DNJ and DMJ is a glucose to fructose isomerisation. Studies with 5-[2H]-D-glucose and 6,6-[2H2]-D-glucose indicate that oxidation of the 6-position of the glucose/ fructose occurs during the biosynthesis and that mannonojirimycin is the first am

Enzymes involved in mycobactin biosynthesis, low molecular weight iron chelators, do not have mammalian homologues; therefore they are considered potential targets for the development of new anti-TB drugs.

The thiazole moiety is biosynthesised from 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate, tyrosine, and cysteine, and at least six genes are required including thiH, thiG, thiS, and thiF. Whilst in aerobes, the C2-N3 fragment of Thz-P derives from glycine in a reaction catalysed by the flavoenzyme ThiO, in anaerobes such as E. coli, dehydroglycine is formed from tyrosine in a ThiH dependent reaction
