Specificity and Promiscuity at the Branch Point in Gentamicin Biosynthesis

Gentamicin C complex is a mixture of aminoglycoside antibiotics used to treat severe Gram-negative bacterial infections. We report here key features of the late-stage biosynthesis of gentamicins. We show that the intermediate gentamicin X2, a known substrate for C-methylation at C-6′ to form G418 ca...
