Fatty acid biosynthesis in actinomycetes [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2011 All organisms that produce fatty acids do so via a repeated cycle of reactions. In mammals and other animals, these reactions are catalyzed by a type I fatty acid synthase (FAS), a large multifunctional protein to which the growing chain is covalently attached.
