What these status tags mean
Curation status describes a workflow state. SEEDED means the record entered through the source-seeding workflow; it does not imply that no later curation occurred. PROPOSED marks an addition awaiting review; REVIEWED records curator sign-off on identity, structure, filing class and producer claims; DEPRECATED retains a superseded or out-of-scope record. These are workflow decisions, not independently verified human review. Agent-assisted contributions may appear in the record history.
Grounding describes the identifier mapping: EXACT uses an ontology identity asserted by the source; MINTED keeps a local identifier when no defensible ontology identity is available; REVIEW_NEEDED flags an exact structure whose ontology identity needs adjudication. The grounding note retains any unresolved alternatives. These tags do not establish the strength of producer or activity evidence.

Filing pathway
Polyketides — computed by NPClassifier npclassifier.gnps2.org@2026-09-07, which is why it is pinned rather than recomputed. The gene cluster's asserted class is pks, saccharide, from MIBiG.
Producer organisms 2
A claim that this taxon makes the compound. The basis says what the evidence addressed — a knockout and a database assertion are not the same claim.

Occurrences 1
Somebody found the compound in this organism and cited it. That is not a claim that the organism makes it, and nothing here promotes one to the other.

A locus claim and a taxon claim are different questions. Heterologous expression settles the first and leaves the second where the isolation report left it.
Biosynthesis curated
Written by a curator with claim-level evidence on each step; not derived from a source. This is what the rest of the record exists to support.
| Step | Enzyme | Reaction | Substrate → product | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Strop_2223 beta-ketoacyl synthase UniProtKB:A4X724 |
ungrounded → ungrounded | DOI:10.1002/cbic.201300147 |
Step 1: This curates the S. tropica CNB-440 Strop_2223/ABP54674.1 beta-ketoacyl synthase as a knockout-supported type II PKS enzyme in the ST_pks2/lom scaffold-biosynthesis branch that produces lomaiviticins, including lomaiviticin E. UniProtKB A4X724 resolves to Strop_2223 in the CNB-440 genome; the exact Strop_2223 substrate/product pair and its minimal-PKS partner are left unresolved.
Mechanism & Biosynthesis Overview
Causal graph — biosynthesis 3 nodes, 2 edges
Partial S. tropica lomaiviticin E biosynthesis graph for the knockout-supported Strop_2223 type II PKS scaffold branch.
| Subject | Predicate | Object | Notes | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strop_2223 beta-ketoacyl synthase | is required for | lomaiviticin type II PKS scaffold biosynthesis | Kersten et al. knocked out strop2223 and MIBiG v5 maps that locus to ABP54674.1; the edge stops at scaffold biosynthesis because the exact condensation reaction was not assayed in vitro. | DOI:10.1002/cbic.201300147 |
| lomaiviticin type II PKS scaffold biosynthesis | contributes to | lomaiviticin E | LC-MS comparison connected ST_pks2 with the lomaiviticin family and identified lomaiviticin E among the wild-type S. tropica CNB-440 products; this graph does not claim a complete route from the type II PKS scaffold to the fully tailored glycoside. | DOI:10.1002/cbic.201300147 |
Every edge carries its own citation; an uncited edge is refused by the corpus tests.
Causal graph — biosynthesis 4 nodes, 3 edges
Partial S. pacifica lomaiviticin E biosynthesis graph for the proposed Lom62/Lom63 propionyl-ACP starter-unit branch.
| Subject | Predicate | Object | Notes | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lom62 acyltransferase/decarboxylase | catalyzes | propionyl-ACP starter-unit generation | The in vitro assay showed Lom62-dependent propionyl-Lom63 formation from methylmalonyl-CoA; this graph leaves the subsequent propionyl starter-unit transfer to the type II PKS unresolved. | DOI:10.1021/ol403714g |
| Lom63 acyl carrier protein | is the preferred carrier protein for | propionyl-ACP starter-unit generation | Lom63 is represented as the preferred ACP partner because competition and single-ACP assays favored propionyl-Lom63 formation over Lom60. | DOI:10.1021/ol403714g |
| propionyl-ACP starter-unit generation | contributes to | lomaiviticin E | Waldman and Balskus proposed Lom62/Lom63 propionyl-ACP formation as lomaiviticin starter-unit logic based on the lomaiviticin scaffold and cluster context; the edge is therefore narrower than a complete pathway from this starter unit to lomaiviticin E. | DOI:10.1021/ol403714g |
Every edge carries its own citation; an uncited edge is refused by the corpus tests.
