CommentBlsE, part of the blasticidin S biosynthetic pathway, is a radical SAM enzyme that performs a decarboxylation at C5 of the glucoside residue. MilG in mildiomycin biosynthesis is equivalent. This enzyme follows CGA synthase and makes the pyranoside core moiety of a class of peptidyl nucleoside antibiotics.
