Abstract | While exploring phytotoxic metabolites from phytopathogenic fungi in the 1970s, we became interested in biosynthetic enzymes that catalyze Diels-Alder reactions involving biosynthesis of several phytotoxins that we isolated. Target enzymes were successfully characterized, and this triggered the identification of various Diels-Alderases in a recent decade. Through our Diels-Alderase project in 1990s, we recognized a highly efficient expression system of various biosynthetic genes with Aspergillus oryzae as a host. With the development of tools such as genomic data and bioinformatics analysis to identify biosynthetic gene clusters for natural products, we developed a highly reliable methodology such as hot spot knock-in to elucidate the biosynthetic pathways of representative fungal metabolites including phytotoxic substances. This methodology allows total biosynthesis of natural products and genome mining using silent biosynthetic gene clusters to obtain novel bioactive metabolites. Further applications of this technology are discussed. |
