The recently discovered modular glucosides (MOGLs) form a large metabolite library derived from combinatorial assembly of moieties from amino acid, neurotransmitter, and lipid metabolism in the model organism C. elegans. Combining CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing, comparative metabolomics, and synthesis, we show that the carboxylesterase homologue Cel-CEST-1.2 is responsible for specific 2-O-acylation of diverse glucose scaffolds with a wide variety of building blocks, resulting in more than 150 different MOGLs. We further show that this biosynthetic role is conserved for the closest homologue of Cel-CEST-1.2 in the related nematode species C. briggsae, Cbr-CEST-2. Expression of Cel-cest-1.2 and MOGL biosynthesis are strongly induced by starvation conditions in C. elegans, one of the premier model systems for mechanisms connecting nutrition and physiology. Cel-cest-1.2-deletion results in early death of adult animals under starvation conditions, providing first insights into the biological functions of MOGLs.

通过羧酸酯酶组合组装模块化糖苷可调节秀丽隐杆线虫的饥饿生存

最近发现的模块化葡萄糖苷 ( MOGL ) 形成了一个大型代谢物文库,该文库源自模式生物秀丽隐杆线虫中氨基酸、神经递质和脂质代谢的部分组合组装。结合 CRISPR-Cas9 基因组编辑、比较代谢组学和合成,我们表明羧酸酯酶同源物 Cel-CEST-1.2 负责对具有多种构建块的不同葡萄糖支架进行特异性 2- O-酰化,从而产生超过 150不同的 MOGL。我们进一步表明,这种生物合成作用对于相关线虫物种C. briggsae Cbr-CEST-2 中最接近的 Cel-CEST-1.2 同源物是保守的。Cel-cest-1.2的表达和 MOGL 的生物合成是由C. elegans的饥饿条件强烈诱导的, C. elegans是连接营养和生理机制的主要模型系统之一。Cel-cest-1.2缺失导致成年动物在饥饿条件下过早死亡,从而首次了解 MOGL 的生物学功能。
