The native N-debenzoyl-2′-deoxypaclitaxel: N-benzoyltransferase (NDTBT), from Taxus plants, transfers a benzoyl group from the corresponding CoA thioester to the amino group of the β-phenylalanine side chain of N-debenzoyl-2′-deoxypaclitaxel, which is purportedly on the paclitaxel (Taxol) biosynthetic pathway. To elucidate the substrate specificity of NDTBT overexpressed in Escherichia coli, the purified enzyme was incubated with ...
