A crotonyl-CoA reductase-carboxylase independent pathway for assembly of unusual alkylmalonyl-CoA polyketide synthase extender units

Polyketides are typically assembled from a starter unit and malonyl- and/or methylmalonyl-CoA-derived extender units, but the macrolide antibiotics stambomycins incorporate non-standard alkylmalonyl-CoA extender units. Here, the authors describe the biosynthetic pathway responsible for this unusual...

Sumario:Polyketides are typically assembled from a starter unit and malonyl- and/or methylmalonyl-CoA-derived extender units, but the macrolide antibiotics stambomycins incorporate non-standard alkylmalonyl-CoA extender units. Here, the authors describe the biosynthetic pathway responsible for this unusual synthesis.
