Lip reading: The biosynthetic gene cluster for A‐90289, a fatty acid nucleoside antibiotic, was cloned and sequenced. The sulfotransferase LipB is demonstrated to be essential for A‐90289 biosynthesis, and in vitro characterization revealed LipB utilizes p ‐nitrophenylsulfate as an aryl sulfate donor and a variety of nonaryl acceptors including caprazamycin A to give the 2′‐ O ‐sulfated product, A‐90289A.
