Tandem ketone reduction in pepstatin biosynthesis reveals an F420H2–dependent statine pathway
Pepstatins are potent inhibitors of aspartic proteases, featuring two statine residues crucial for target binding. However, the biosynthesis of pepstatins, especially their statine substructure, remains elusive.

Evolutionary Reprogramming of Acyltransferase Domains in Polyene Macrolide Pathways
The evolution of type I polyketide synthase (T1PKS) assembly lines remains poorly understood. Through systematic mining of polyene biosynthetic gene clusters, we identified a novel eurocidin biosynthetic pathway capable of producing identical compounds ...
