Biosynthetic Study of CcsA and a Polyketide Synthase with Homology to Carnitine Acyltransferase
DownloadFall 2017
Polyketides are a class of natural products with large structural and biochemical diversity. Polyketides are assembled by the polymerization of short-chain fatty acids by enzymes named polyketide synthases. Fungal iterative polyketide synthases are notable in that they contain multiple active...

Investigations of Fungal Highly Reducing Polyketide Synthases: The Biosyntheses of Lovastatin and Hypothemycin
DownloadFall 2017
Fungal highly reducing polyketide synthases (HR-PKSs) are large, multi-domain enzymes central to the biosynthesis of fungal polyketides. They assemble complex secondary metabolites, called polyketides, through the condensation of two-carbon acetate units and tailoring of the functional groups at...
