Aurovertins are the structurally diverse polyketides that distribute widely in different fungal species. They feature a 2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]-octane ring in structure and exhibit the potential antitumor activity against breast cancer as F1-ATPase beta subunit inhibitor. In this study, we constructed the biosynthetic pathway of aurovertin in an Aspergillus nidulans host and obtained seven aurovertin-type compounds. Surprisingly, three new aurovertin geometric isomers were characterized. By introducing an inducible promoter xylP(p) in the pathway gene acyltransferase aurG, we can control the product ratios among different aurovertin compounds by adding glucose and/or inducer xylose. The yields of aurovertins could be increased up to about 20 times by adding a constitutive promoter gpdA(p) to transcription factor AurF, which indicates AurF's positive role in the biosynthesis of aurovertin. Taken together, our results provided not only an efficient way to generate bioactive fungal natural products but also realized the rational controlling their yields with designed promoters.
