Polyketide synthesis in vitro on a modular polyketide synthase
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]
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]
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 ...

Promiscuity‐Guided Enzyme Evolution via Substrate Multiplexed Screening
Through historical context and recent examples, this Minireview summarizes the strengths, limitations, and practical considerations for the implementation of substrate multiplexed screening (SUMS) in enzyme evolution. ABSTRACT An enzyme's ability to react with diverse substrates while maintaining high yield and selectivity, termed “substrate ...
