Abstract
Lip reading: The biosynthetic gene cluster for A-90289, a fatty acid nucleoside antibiotic, was cloned and sequenced. The sulfotransferase LipB is demonstrated to be essential for A-90289 biosynthesis, and in vitro characterization revealed LipB utilizes p-nitrophenylsulfate as an aryl sulfate donor and a variety of nonaryl acceptors including caprazamycin A to give the 2′-O-sulfated product, A-90289A. (Chemical Equation Presented).
