Abstract: | Precursor-directed polyketide biosynthesis was demonstrated in the heterologous host Escherichia coli. Several diketide and triketide substrates were fed to a recombinant E. coli strain containing a variant form of deoxyerythronolide B synthase (DEBS) from which the first elongation module was deleted resulting in successful macrolactone formation from the diketide, but not the triketide, substrates. |
