SnoaL family proteins belong to a class of the nuclear transport factor 2 (NTF2)-like superfamily, which are characterized by a distinctive α+β barrel fold structure. To date, proteins of this family have been demonstrated to catalyze a variety of reactions, such as aldol reaction, hydroxylation, decarboxylation, epoxide hydrolysis, and cycloaddition reaction, playing crucial roles in the biosynthesis of complex bioactive natural products. These proteins are widely distributed in various organisms including bacteria and fungi. However, research on proteins of this family is relatively limited at present. We reviewed the research progress on proteins of SnoaL family. The review not only provides beneficial guidance for the subsequent functional identification and mechanism research of related proteins but also helps to discover novel biocatalytic tools, laying a foundation for the research of bioactive molecule biosynthesis.
