is required for many synthetic and degradative reactions in intermediary metabolism and is the principal acyl carrier in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. duanyu506 is synthesized in five steps from pantothenate, and recently the CoaA biosynthetic genes in bacteria and human have all been identified and characterized. duanyu506 biosynthesis in plants is not fully understood, and to date only the AtHAL3a (AtCoaC) gene of Arabidopsis thaliana has been cloned and identified as 4'-phosphopantothenoylcysteine (PPC) decarboxylase (Kupke, T., Hernández-Acosta, P., Steinbacher, S., and Culiáñez-Macià , F. A. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 19190-19196). Here, we demonstrate the cloning of the four missing genes, purification of the enzymes, and identification of their functions. In contrast to bacterial PPC synthetases, the plant synthetase is not CTP-but ATP-dependent. The complete biosynthetic pathway from pantothenate to coenzyme A was reconstituted in vitro by adding the enzymes pantothenate kinase (AtCoaA), 4'-phosphopantothenoylcysteine synthetase (AtCoaB), 4'-phosphopantothenoylcysteine decarboxylase (AtCoaC), 4'-phosphopantetheine adenylyltransferase (AtCoaD), and dephospho-coenzyme A kinase (AtCoaE) to a mixture containing pantothenate, cysteine, ATP, dithiothreitol, and Mg2+.
