Mycocerosic acid synthase exemplifies the architecture of reducing polyketide synthases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Polyketide synthases (PKSs) are biosynthetic factories that produce natural products with important biological and pharmacological activities1, 2, 3. Their exceptional product diversity is encoded in a modular architecture.

Platelet Lysate–Enriched Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell–Derived Chondrocyte Sheets for Bone Defect Repair via Endochondral Ossification

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 9, 6 March 2026.
Human iPSC‐derived hypertrophic chondrocyte sheet promotes bone regeneration. ABSTRACT Bone defects are a major clinical challenge, primarily owing to the limited self‐healing capacity of bones and the high risk of complications associated with conventional treatment strategies.

Insights from meta‐analysis for efficient docosahexaenoic acid production in thraustochytrids through advanced cultivation and fermentation strategies

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 2, Page 1041-1060, March/April 2026.
Abstract This systematic review examines strategies for docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) production by thraustochytrids, focusing on cultivation techniques, fermentation technologies, and carbon/nitrogen optimization to increase productivity. Among 169 eligible articles, the 100 most productive studies (0.7–10.3 g DHA L−1 per day) were analyzed. Quantitative

Structure and mechanism of chalcone synthase-like polyketide synthases

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2001
Polyketide synthases (PKS) produce an array of natural products with different biological activities and pharmacological properties by varying the starter and extender molecules that form the final polyketide. Recent studies of the simplest PKS, the chalcone synthase (CHS)-like enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of flavonoids, anthocyanin pigments ...

Cardamonin Commands the Colonic Metabolite Columbianetin Acetate to Compete Against LPS in Binding HMGB1 in the Kidney, Preventing Lipopolysaccharide‐Induced Renal Tubular Pyroptosis

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Cardamonin upregulate sd the intestinal metabolite columbianetin acetate, which competitively bound HMGB1 to prevent LPS‐induced renal tubular cell pyroptosis (the figure is created with BioRender). ABSTRACT Sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (SA‐AKI) results in high mortality due to the lack of effective interventions. The current study reports the

Biosynthesis gene cluster‐containing species drive microbial community stability under thermal stress through enhanced ecological cohesion

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
The study framework for exploring microbial community assembly and community stability of biosynthesis gene cluster (BGC)‐containing species under thermal stress (20°C–65°C) during 39 days of spontaneous fermentation. Temperature gradients during spontaneous fermentation reshape microbial community assembly, driving pronounced succession in both ...

Mycochemical Diversity and Therapeutic Potential of Hymenochaetoid Fungi from Central Asia: Regional and Global Perspectives

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Central Asia harbors a rich yet understudied assemblage of wood‐inhabiting Hymenochaetoid fungi. This review delivers the first comprehensive synthesis of 43 poroid species representing 18 genera documented across montane forests, steppes, and xeric habitats.

Engineered Biosynthesis of Regioselectively Modified Aromatic Polyketides Using Bimodular Polyketide Synthases

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2004
Bacterial aromatic polyketides such as tetracycline and doxorubicin are a medicinally important class of natural products produced as secondary metabolites by actinomyces bacteria. Their backbones are derived from malonyl-CoA units by polyketide synthases (PKSs).
