    Sideromycins are a unique subset of siderophores comprising of a siderophore conjugated to an antimicrobial agent. The "Trojan horse" antibiotic albomycins are unique sideromycins consisting of a ferrichrome-type siderophore conjugated to a peptidyl nucleoside antibiotic. They exhibit potent antibacterial activities against many model bacteria and a number of clinical pathogens. Earlier studies have provided significant insight into the biosynthetic pathway of the peptidyl nucleoside moiety. We herein decipher the biosynthetic pathway of the ferrichrome-type siderophore in Streptomyces sp. ATCC 700974. Our genetic studies suggested that abmA, abmB, and abmQ are involved in the formation of the ferrichrome-type siderophore. Additionally, we performed biochemical studies to demonstrate that a flavin-dependent monooxygenase AbmB and an N-acyltransferase AbmA catalyze sequential modifications of L-ornithine to generate N<sup>5</sup>-acetyl-N<sup>5</sup>-hydroxyornithine. Three molecules of N<sup>5</sup>-acetyl-N<sup>5</sup>-hydroxyornithine are then assembled to generate the tripeptide ferrichrome through the action of a nonribosomal peptide synthetase AbmQ. Of special note, we found out that orf05026 and orf03299, two genes scattered elsewhere in the chromosome of Streptomyces sp. ATCC 700974, have functional redundancy for abmA and abmB, respectively. Interestingly, both orf05026 and orf03299 are situated within gene clusters encoding putative siderophores. In summary, this study provided new insight into the siderophore moiety of albomycin biosynthesis and shed light on the contingency of multiple siderophores in albomycin-producing Streptomyces sp. ATCC 700974.
