Acyl-chain elongation drives ketosynthase substrate selectivity in trans-acyltransferase polyketide synthases
(2014)
Journal Article
Type I modular polyketide synthases (PKSs), responsible for the biosynthesis of many biologically active agents, possess a ketosynthase (KS) domain within each module to catalyze chain elongation. Acylation of the KS active site Cys residue is foll... Read More about Acyl-chain elongation drives ketosynthase substrate selectivity in trans-acyltransferase polyketide synthases.
