Abstract
Review covering up to 2021Cyclitols derived from carbohydrates are naturally stable hydrophilic substances under ordinary physiological conditions, increasing the water solubility of whole molecules in cells. The stability of cyclitols is derived from their carbocyclic structures bearing no acetal groups, in contrast to sugar molecules. Therefore, carbocycle-forming reactions are critical for the biosynthesis of cyclitols. Herein, we review naturally occurring cyclitols that have been identified to date and categorize them according to the type of carbocycle-forming enzymatic reaction. Furthermore, the cyclitol-forming enzymatic reaction mechanisms and modification pathways of the initially generated cyclitols are reviewed.

Abstract
d-Allosamine is a rare sugar in Nature but its pyranoid form has been found α-linked in the core region of the lipopolysaccharide from the Gram-negative bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis and in the chitanase inhibitor allosamidin, then β-linked and N-acetylated. In water solution the monosaccharide N-acetyl-d-allosamine (d-AllNAc) shows a significant presence of four tautomers arising from pyranoid and furanoid ring forms and anomeric configurations. The furanoid ring forms both showed 3JH1,H2≈ 4.85 Hz and to differentiate the anomeric configurations a series of chemical shift anisotropy/dipole-dipole cross-correlated relaxation NMR experiments was performed in which the α-anomeric form showed notable different relaxation rates for its components of the H1 doublet, thereby making it possible to elucidate the anomeric configuration of each of the furanoses. The conformational preferences of the different forms of d-AllNAc were investigated by 3JHH, 2JCH and 3JCH coupling constants from NMR experiments, molecular dynamics simulations and density functional theory calculations. The pyranose form resides in the 4C1 conformation and the furanose ring form has the majority of its conformers located on the South-East region of the pseudorotation wheel, with a small population in the Northern hemisphere. The tautomeric equilibrium was quite sensitive to changes in temperature, where the β-anomer of the pyranoid ring form decreased upon a temperature increase while the other forms increased.

Abstract
Chitinases are glycosyl hydrolases that hydrolyze the β-(1-4)-linkage of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine units present in chitin polymers. Chitinases are widely distributed enzymes and are present in a wide range of organisms including insects, plants, bacteria, fungi, and mammals. These enzymes play key roles in immunity, nutrition, pathogenicity, and arthropod molting. Humans express two chitinases, chitotriosidase 1 (CHIT1) and acid mammalian chitinase (AMCase) along with several chitinase-like proteins (CLPs). Human chitinases are reported to play a protective role against chitin-containing pathogens through their capability to degrade chitin present in the cell wall of pathogens. Now, human chitinases are gaining attention as the key players in innate immune response. Although the exact mechanism of their role in immune response is not known, studies in recent years begin to relate chitin recognition and degradation with the activation of signaling pathways involved in inflammation. The roles of both CHIT1 and AMCase in the development of various diseases have been revealed and several classes of inhibitors have been developed. However, a clear understanding could not be established due to complexities in the design of the right experiment for studying the role of human chitinase in various diseases. In this chapter, we will first outline the structural features of CHIT1 and AMcase. We will then review the progress in understanding the role of human chitinases in the development of various diseases. Finally, we will summarize the inhibitor discovery efforts targeting both CHIT1 and AMCase.

Abstract
Pactamycin, a structurally unique aminocyclitol natural product isolated from Streptomyces pactum, has potent antibacterial, antitumor, and anti-protozoa activities. However, its production yields under currently used culture conditions are generally low. To understand how pactamycin biosynthesis is regulated and explore the possibility of improving pactamycin production in S. pactum, we investigated the transcription regulations of pactamycin biosynthesis. In vivo inactivation of two putative pathway-specific regulatory genes, ptmE and ptmF, resulted in mutant strains that are not able to produce pactamycin. Genetic complementation using a cassette containing ptmE and ptmF integrated into the S. pactum chromosome rescued the production of pactamycin. Transcriptional analysis of the ΔptmE and ΔptmF strains suggests that both genes control the expression of the whole pactamycin biosynthetic gene cluster. However, attempts to overexpress these regulatory genes by introducing a second copy of the genes in S. pactum did not improve the production yield of pactamycin. We discovered that pactamycin biosynthesis is sensitive to phosphate regulation. Concentration of inorganic phosphate higher than 2 mM abolished both the transcription of the biosynthetic genes and the production of the antibiotic. Draft genome sequencing of S. pactum and bioinformatics studies revealed the existence of global regulatory genes, e.g., genes that encode a two-component PhoR-PhoP system, which are commonly involved in secondary metabolism. Inactivation of phoP did not show any significant effect to pactamycin production. However, in the phoP::aac(3)IV mutant, pactamycin biosynthesis is not affected by external inorganic phosphate concentration.

Abstract
Four new elaiophylin macrolides (1-4), together with five known elaiophylins (5-9), have been isolated from cultures of the Indonesian soil bacterium Streptomyces sp. ICBB 9297. The new compounds have macrocyclic skeletons distinct from those of the known dimeric elaiophylins in that one or both of the polyketide chains contain(s) an additional pendant methyl group. Further investigations revealed that 1 and 2 were derived from 3 and 4, respectively, during isolation processes. Compounds 1-3 showed comparable antibacterial activity to elaiophylin against Staphylococcus aureus. However, interestingly, only compounds 1 and 3, which contain a pendant methyl group at C-2, showed activity against Mycobacterium smegmatis, whereas compound 2, which has two pendant methyl groups at C-2 and C-2', and the known elaiophylin analogues (5-7), which lack pendant methyl groups at C-2 and/or C-2', showed no activity. The production of 3 and 4 in strain ICBB 9297 indicates that one of the acyltransferase (AT) domains in the elaiophylin polyketide synthases (PKSs) can recruit both malonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA as substrates. Bioinformatic analysis of the AT domains of the elaiophylin PKSs revealed that the ela_AT7 domain contains atypical active site amino acid residues, distinct from those conserved in malonyl-CoA- or methylmalonyl-CoA-specific ATs.

Abstract
Allosamidins, which are secondary metabolites of the Streptomyces species, have chitin-mimic pseudotrisaccharide structures. They bind to catalytic centers of all family 18 chitinases and inhibit their enzymatic activity. Allosamidins have been used as chitinase inhibitors to investigate the physiological roles of chitinases in a variety of organisms. Two prominent biological activities of allosamidins were discovered, where one has anti-asthmatic activity in mammals, while the other has the chitinase-production- promoting activity in allosamidin-producing Streptomyces. In this article, recent studies on the novel biological activities of allosamidins are reviewed.

Abstract
Pactamycin is an aminocyclopentitol-derived natural product that has potent antibacterial and antitumor activities. Sequence analysis of an 86 kb continuous region of the chromosome from Streptomyces pactum ATCC 27456 revealed a gene cluster involved in the biosynthesis of pactamycin. Gene inactivation of the Fe-S radical SAM oxidoreductase (ptmC) and the glycosyltransferase (ptmJ), individually abrogated pactamycin biosynthesis; this confirmed the involvement of the ptm gene cluster in pactamycin biosynthesis. The polyketide synthase gene (ptmQ) was found to support 6-methylsalicylic acid (6-MSA) synthesis in a heterologous host, S. lividans T7. In vivo inactivation of ptmQ in S. pactum impaired pactamycin and pactamycate production but led to production of two new pactamycin analogues, de-6-MSA-pactamycin and de-6-MSA-pactamycate. The new compounds showed equivalent cytotoxic and antibacterial activities with the corresponding parent molecules and shed more light on the structure-activity relationship of pactamycin.

Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis synthesizes two lipopolysaccharides (LPSs), O-LPS and A-LPS. Here, we elucidate the structure of the core oligosaccharide (OS) of O-LPS from two mutants of P. gingivalis W50, Delta PG1051 (WaaL, O-antigen ligase) and Delta PG1142 (O-antigen polymerase), which synthesize R-type LPS (core devoid of O antigen) and SR-type LPS (core plus one repeating unit of O antigen), respectively. Structural analyses were performed using one-dimensional and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in combination with composition and methylation analysis. The outer core OS of O-LPS occurs in two glycoforms: an "uncapped core," which is devoid of O polysaccharide (O-PS), and a "capped core," which contains the site of O-PS attachment. The inner core region lacks L(D)-glycero-D(l)-manno-heptosyl residues and is linked to the outer core via 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid, which is attached to a glycerol residue in the outer core via a monophosphodiester bridge. The outer region of the "uncapped core" is attached to the glycerol and is composed of a linear alpha-(1-->3)-linked d-Man OS containing four or five mannopyranosyl residues, one-half of which are modified by phosphoethanolamine at position 6. An amino sugar, alpha-D-allosamine, is attached to the glycerol at position 3. In the "capped core," there is a three- to five-residue extension of alpha-(1-->3)-linked Man residues glycosylating the outer core at the nonreducing terminal residue. beta-D-GalNAc from the O-PS repeating unit is attached to the nonreducing terminal Man at position 3. The core OS of P. gingivalis O-LPS is therefore a highly unusual structure, and it is the basis for further investigation of the mechanism of assembly of the outer membrane of this important periodontal bacterium.

Abstract
A stream of genetic and biochemical information available for the biosynthesis of aminocyclitols over the past few years has provided the foundation to study the modes of formation of this clinically important class of natural products. In addition to work on the identification and functional analysis of aminocyclitol biosynthetic gene clusters, a contingent of recent studies has focused on the detailed analysis of unique enzymatic and catalytic mechanisms inherent to these pathways. The results provide invaluable insights into the biochemical and molecular aspects of aminocyclitol biosynthesis and have revealed diverse and unique features of the pathways.

Abstract
The biosynthetic gene (pct) cluster for an antitumor antibiotic pactamycin was identified by use of a gene for putative radical S-adenosylmethionine methyltransferase as a probe. The pct gene cluster is localized to a 34 kb contiguous DNA from Streptomyces pactum NBRC 13433 and contains 24 open reading frames. Based on the bioinformatic analysis, a plausible biosynthetic pathway for pactamycin comprising of a unique cyclopentane ring, 3-aminoacetophenone, and 6-methylsalicylate was proposed. The pctL gene encoding a glycosyltransferase was speculated to be involved in an N-glycoside formation between 3-aminoacetophenone and UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine prior to a unique cyclopentane ring formation. The pctL gene was then heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli and the enzymatic activity of the recombinant PctL protein was investigated. Consequently, the PctL protein was found to catalyze the expected reaction forming beta-N-glycoside. The enzymatic activity of the PctL protein clearly confirmed that the present identified gene cluster is for the biosynthesis of pactamycin. Also, a glycosylation prior to cyclopentane ring formation was proposed to be a general strategy in the biosynthesis of the structurally related cyclopentane containing compounds.

Abstract
In Streptomyces sp. AJ9463, a producer of chitinase inhibitor allosamidin, allosamidin strongly enhances production of the chitinase mainly secreted to the culture broth in a chitin medium. To clarify the mechanism for regulation of the chitinase production by allosamidin, a disruption experiment of genes encoding proteins constructing a two-component regulatory system present at 5'-upstream region of the chitinase gene was performed. In the disruptant obtained, allosamidin could not promote the chitinase production, but N, N'-diacetylchitobiose, which also enhances production of the same chitinase more weakly than allosamidin, promoted the chitinase production similarly to the case observed in the wild-type strain. Furthermore, by the experiment in an inorganic salt solution, it was shown that allosamidin could not induce the chitinase production without addition of N, N'-diacetylchitobiose. These results show that allosamidin can activate transcription of the chitinase gene through the two-component regulatory system in the presence of N, N'-diacetylchitobiose.
