Description
Cyclo(L-Trp-L-Trp) is a cyclic dipeptide with antibacterial activity. It inhibits the growth of 41 out of 49 strains of multidrug resistant A. baumannii as well as B. subtilis, M. luteus, S. aureus, S. cerevisiae, A. niger and C. albicans. It has been used as a substrate for indole prenyltransferases in the synthesis of mono- and diprenylated indolines.

1. Complete Decoration of the Indolyl Residue in cyclo-l-Trp-l-Trp with Geranyl Moieties by Using Engineered Dimethylallyl Transferases
Georg Zocher, Jie Fan, Shu-Ming Li, Peter Mai, Thilo Stehle, Ge Liao Org Lett . 2018 Nov 16;20(22):7201-7205. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.8b03124.
Mutation of the gatekeeping residues for prenyl donor selectivity in six dimethylallyl transferases significantly increased their activities toward geranyl diphosphate. Forty-two geranylated derivatives were obtained from 15 cyclic dipeptides by using the engineered enzymes. Taking cyclo-l-Trp-l-Trp as an example, the geranyl moiety can be attached to all seven possible positions of the indole nucleus. This study demonstrates a convenient way to increase the structural diversity of geranylated products by structure-based engineering of the available dimethylallyl transferases.
2. Simultaneous C7- and N1-prenylation of cyclo-L-Trp-L-Trp catalyzed by a prenyltransferase from Aspergillus oryzae
Hui-Xi Zou, Shu-Ming Li, Xiu-Lan Xie, Xiao-Dong Zheng, Uwe Linne Org Biomol Chem . 2010 Jun 28;8(13):3037-44. doi: 10.1039/c002850a.
A putative prenyltransferase gene cTrpPT was amplified from Aspergillus oryzae DSM1147, cloned into pQE70 and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The overproduced His(6)-CTrpPT was purified to near homogeneity and incubated with L-tryptophan or tryptophan-containing cyclic dipeptides in the presence of dimethylallyl diphosphate. The formation of the enzyme products was monitored with HPLC. It was shown that CTrpPT differed clearly from other known indole prenyltransferases in several aspects. This enzyme showed higher substrate specificity towards aromatic substrates, but lower regioselectivity regarding the prenylation position than other indole prenyltransferases. Cyclo-L-Trp-L-Trp was much better accepted than other cyclic dipeptides tested in this study. In comparison to other indole prenyltransferases with one dominant enzyme product, at least two product peaks were detected in the reaction mixtures of CTrpPT. (1)H- and (13)C-NMR analyses, including long-range (1)H-(13)C connectivities in Heteronuclear Multiple-Bond Correlation (HMBC) and Nuclear Overhauser Effect Spectroscopy (NOESY), proved the structures of the enzyme products as C7- and N1-prenylated derivatives with a ratio of 1:1.2 using cyclo-L-Trp-L-Trp as substrate. The K(M) values were determined at about 2.5 mM for dimethylallyl diphosphate and 0.3 mM for cyclo-L-Trp-L-Trp with a turnover number of 0.33 s(-1).
3. Coupling of Guanine with cyclo-l-Trp-l-Trp Mediated by a Cytochrome P450 Homologue from Streptomyces purpureus
Shu-Ming Li, Xiulan Xie, Huili Yu Org Lett . 2018 Aug 17;20(16):4921-4925. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.8b02051.
A cyclo-l-Trp-l-Trp tailoring P450 with novel function from Streptomyces purpureus was identified by heterologous expression in S. coelicolor and in vitro assays the recombinant protein. Structural elucidation revealed that this enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a guanine moiety to the indole ring of the cyclodipeptide via a C-N bond. Adduct products of CDP and guanine are unprecedented in nature, and CDP modification by coupling with guanine has not been reported prior to this study.
