Polyketide synthesis in vitro on a modular polyketide synthase

open access: yesChemistry & Biology, 1995
The 6-deoxyerythronolide B synthase (DEBS) of Saccharopolyspora erythraea, which synthesizes the aglycone core of the antibiotic erythromycin A, contains some 30 active sites distributed between three multienzyme polypeptides (designated DEBS1-3). This complexity has hitherto frustrated mechanistic analysis of such enzymes.

Iterative polyketide biosynthesis by modular polyketide synthases in bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2015
Modular polyketide synthases (type I PKSs) in bacteria are responsible for synthesizing a significant percentage of bioactive natural products. This group of synthases has a characteristic modular organization, and each module within a PKS carries out one cycle of polyketide chain elongation; thus each module is non-iterative in function.

A Polyketide Synthase Component for Oxygen Insertion into Polyketide Backbones [PDF]

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, 2018
AbstractEnzymatic core components from trans‐acyltransferase polyketide synthases (trans‐AT PKSs) catalyze exceptionally diverse biosynthetic transformations to generate structurally complex bioactive compounds. Here we focus on a group of oxygenases identified in various trans‐AT PKS pathways, including those for pederin, oocydins, and toblerols ...
