PubMed Abstract: Phosphonate natural products have proven value to society as antibiotics and herbicides. They inhibit a range of enzyme targets usually by mimicking the enzyme substrates. In this study, we investigate a family of phosphonate biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) found in . Heterologous expression in resulted in production of an antimicrobial compound. Spectroscopic characterization and chemical synthesis assigned its structure as 2,4-dioxopentylphosphonic acid. One of the biosynthetic enzymes is a member of the domain of unknown function (DUF) 849 family with homology to β-keto acid cleavage enzymes (BKACEs). In vitro characterization shows that this enzyme catalyzes chemistry that is divergent from previously characterized BKACEs. The observed catalytic activity is explained by a series of cocrystal structures with substrates and intermediates. The BGC also contains a gene encoding lumazine synthase (LS), an essential enzyme in flavin biosynthesis. Biochemical experiments revealed that 2,4-dioxopentylphosphonic acid inhibits LS. In addition, expression of the LS encoded in the BGC, or LS orthologs from a range of organisms, in conferred resistance to the new phosphonate, which we therefore name flavophos.
