  1. Isoprenoid Synthase Bridging Project Dale Poulter Enzyme Function Initiative (EFI) Advisory Committee Meeting November 30, 2011

  2. IS Superfamily: Assigned Functions Coupling Cyclization Chain Elongation Cyclopropanation/Branching Rearrangement

  3. Structures for Coupling Enzymes Chain Elongation Cyclopropanation/Branching Rearrangement

  4. Structures for Cyclase Enzymes Pentalenene Synthase Streptomyces sp. 5-epi-Aristolochene Synthase Nicotiana tabacum Squalene-hopene Cyclase Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius Taxadiene Synthase Taxus brevifolia

  5. IS Superfamily Squalene/Phytoene Synthase Like Polyprenyl Synthase Like

  6. Interactions with Core Facilities • Superfamily/Genome – identify structural/functional clusters in superfamily; • target selection – Patsy Babbitt; Daniel Almonacid • Protein – screen for activity, determine substrates/products – Steve Almo; • Brndan Hillerich; Ron Seidel • Structure – synthesize unreactive analogues; analyze structures – Steve Almo; • Yury Patskovsky; Matt Vetting • Computation – Docking/homology modeling for prediction of function – Matt • Jacobson; Frank Wallrapp • Microbiology – Identify operons containing isoprene synthase genes; identify • products of operon; in vivo function – John Cronan; McKay Wood
