Compactin-a review.

Compactin, a hypocholesterolemic molecule, is a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase, which is a regulatory enzyme for cholesterol biosynthesis. The structural similarity and high affinity of the acid form of compactin and HMG, the natural substrate of enzyme, r ... >> More
Compactin, a hypocholesterolemic molecule, is a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase, which is a regulatory enzyme for cholesterol biosynthesis. The structural similarity and high affinity of the acid form of compactin and HMG, the natural substrate of enzyme, results in specific and effective inhibition of this enzyme. Inhibition results in reduced levels of mevalonic acid in the body, leading to pleiotropic effects. Various fungi have been used for the commercial production of compactin. Using different strategies for improving production levels, yields have been increased to around 900 times of the amount originally produced. Recently, the gene sequence responsible for compactin production has been cloned and sequenced. This review deals with the chemistry, mode of action, pharmacology, biosynthesis, and production of compactin. A comparative study of various reports dealing with the production of compactin is also included. << Less

Molecular cloning and characterization of an ML-236B (compactin) biosynthetic gene cluster in Penicillium citrinum.
Abe Y., Suzuki T., Ono C., Iwamoto K., Hosobuchi M., Yoshikawa H.
Cloning of genes encoding polyketide synthases (PKSs) has allowed us to identify a gene cluster for ML-236B biosynthesis in Penicillium citrinum. Like lovastatin, which is produced by Aspergillus terreus, ML-236B (compactin) inhibits the enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reduc ... >> More
Cloning of genes encoding polyketide synthases (PKSs) has allowed us to identify a gene cluster for ML-236B biosynthesis in Penicillium citrinum. Like lovastatin, which is produced by Aspergillus terreus, ML-236B (compactin) inhibits the enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase. Genomic sequencing and Northern analysis showed that nine predicted genes for ML-236B biosynthesis were located within a 38-kb region and were transcribed when ML-236B was produced. The predicted amino acid sequences encoded by these nine genes, designated mlcA-mlcH and mlcR, were similar to those encoded by the genes for lovastatin synthesis, and were therefore assumed to be involved either directly or indirectly in ML-236B biosynthesis. Targeted disruption experiments provided evidence that two PKS genes in the cluster, mlcA and mlcB, are required for the biosynthesis of the nonaketide and the diketide moieties, respectively, of ML-236B, suggesting that the gene cluster as a whole is responsible for ML-236B biosynthesis in P. citrinum. Bioconversion of some of the predicted intermediates by an mlcA-disrupted mutant was also investigated in order to analyze the ML-236B biosynthetic pathway. The molecular organization of the gene cluster and proposed functions for the ML-236B biosynthetic genes in P. citrinum are described. << Less
