Caerulomycins (CAEs) and collismycins (COLs), which mainly differ in sulfur decoration, are two groups of structurally similar natural products containing a 2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-BP) core, derivatives of which have been widely used in chemistry. The biosynthetic pathways of CAEs and COLs remain elusive. In this work, cloning of the CAE biosynthetic gene cluster allowed us to mine a highly conserved gene cluster encoding COL biosynthesis in a Streptomyces strain that was previously unknown as a 2,2'-BP producer. In vitro and in vivo investigations into the biosynthesis revealed that CAEs and COLs share a common paradigm featuring an atypical hybrid polyketide synthase/nonribosomal peptide synthetase system that programs the 2,2'-BP formation. This likely involves an unusual intramolecular cyclization/rearrangement sequence, and a difference in processing of the sulfhydryl group derived from the same precursor cysteine drives the biosynthetic route toward CAEs or COLs.
