Afu8g00520 (Fma-TC)
Afu8g00520 (BBa_K4610000) is a segment of DNA that encodes for the integral membrane protein Fumagillin beta-trans-bergamotene synthase af520/Fumagillan biosynthesis terpene cyclase (Fma-TC).
Fma-TC is used as the first step of the Fumagillan biosynthesis pathway chosen by the CCA-iGEM team. This fumagillin biosynthesis pathway summarized by Guruceaga et. al 2020, consists of two branches that combine the two components required for the generation of fumagilin, a structure composed of a rearranged highly oxygenated sesquiterpene and a polyketide-derived tetraenoic diacid, by esterification. The first branch produces fumagillol and involves Fma-TC and subsequently Afu8g00520. The pathway begins with the initial substrate, farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP). FPP is then converted to β-trans-bergamotene by Fma-TC.
